Ingredients
Scale
Fudge Mixture
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk (14 oz.)
- 2 cups white chocolate chips
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 cups mini marshmallows
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, sliced into smaller pieces
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon red food coloring (adjust to preference)
Oreos
- 2½ cups crushed Oreos (about 24-28 Oreos), plus extra as desired for topping
Instructions
- Prepare baking pan and crush Oreos: Line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, allowing enough overhang on the sides for easy lifting of the fudge later. In a plastic bag, use a large spoon to crush the Oreos until broken into small pieces.
- Melt ingredients: In a medium saucepan over low to medium-low heat, combine the sweetened condensed milk, white chocolate chips, semi-sweet chocolate chips, butter, and mini marshmallows. Stir continuously for 8-10 minutes until everything is fully melted and smooth. Using lower heat helps prevent burning and ensures a creamy texture.
- Add flavor and mix Oreos: Remove the saucepan from heat. Stir in the vanilla extract and red food coloring until evenly mixed. Gently fold about 2 cups of the crushed Oreos into the fudge mixture, distributing them evenly without breaking them down further.
- Transfer and top: Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly. Tap the pan on the countertop several times to settle the fudge and release any trapped air bubbles. Sprinkle the remaining crushed Oreos on top, gently pressing them into the fudge so they stick well.
- Chill and serve: Refrigerate the fudge for about 4 hours or until fully set and firm. Once set, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the fudge out of the pan. Cut into 1-inch pieces or your preferred size, yielding up to 64 pieces. Enjoy your creamy, delicious red velvet Oreo fudge!
Notes
- For best results, melt the fudge ingredients over low heat to avoid scorching.
- Adjust the amount of red food coloring to get your desired shade of red.
- You can store the fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- For easier cutting, allow fudge to come slightly to room temperature before slicing.
- Use parchment paper with a good overhang to make removing the fudge from the pan quick and easy.
