Fudge Base
- 24 oz white chocolate chips (or melting chocolate wafers)
- 14 oz sweetened condensed milk
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 1/2 teaspoon lemon extract
- a few drops yellow food coloring
Add-ins
- 2 cups chopped Lemon Oreos
- Prep: Line a 9×9-inch baking pan with waxed paper, allowing the paper to overhang on two opposite sides for easy removal later.
- Melt: In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the white chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and unsalted butter.
- Microwave and Stir: Microwave the mixture for 1 minute. Stir thoroughly for 1 minute to use residual heat to melt the chocolate further.
- Continue Melting: Microwave the mixture in additional 30-second intervals, stirring well for 1 minute after each, until the mixture is completely smooth and fully melted.
- Mix Flavor and Cookies: Stir in the lemon extract, chopped Lemon Oreos, and a few drops of yellow food coloring evenly throughout the fudge mixture.
- Pour: Transfer and pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan. Press some additional chopped Lemon Oreos on top for decoration and added crunch.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the fudge to cool at room temperature until it hardens completely. Once set, slice into squares and serve.
Notes
- Use high-quality white chocolate chips or melting wafers for the creamiest texture.
- Ensure you microwave in short increments and stir often to prevent burning the chocolate.
- Pressing extra Oreos on top adds a decorative touch and texture contrast.
- Store fudge in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or refrigerate for longer shelf life.
- For a stronger lemon flavor, add an extra 1/2 teaspoon of lemon extract if desired.
