This is a really quick and simple fudge recipe, which I got from Cupcake Jemma’s Cookies & Cream Fudge Recipe. Unlike “real” fudge, this involves minimal effort but with great end results.

Ingredients

Cookies & Cream layer

• 280g White chocolate
• 200g (half a normal can) Condensed Milk
• 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
• 10 broken-up Oreos

Chocolate layer

• 280g Dark chocolate (50% dark)
• 50g Butter
• 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
• Pinch of salt
• 200g (half a normal can) Condensed Milk

Equipment

• A bowl
• A saucepan (which the bowl can rest on without touching the bottom)
• Spatula
• Baking tray
• Greaseproof paper

Instructions

• Line your baking tray with butter (so the paper sticks to the sides) and then put the greaseproof paper in and press it down.

Cookies and Cream layer

• Chop up the white chocolate into small chunks and put in your bowl.

• Pour in your condensed milk and vanilla extract.

• Boil some water and pour into your saucepan, so there is an inch of water at the bottom, keep it simmering.

• Put your bowl on top of the pan, making sure that the bottom of the bowl isn’t touching the water (you’ll use the steam to heat up your ingredients)

  • Congratulations you’ve just made a Bain-marie

• Stir the mixture until the ingredients are well incorporated, you’ll know this by the mixture holding together and no longer leaving sticky traces on the side of the bowl.

• Take the bowl off the pan and mix in your broken up Oreos. Do this quickly as the mixture will start to set!

• Now (equally quickly) pour your mixture into your baking tray and spread it around until the surface is smooth (a back of a spoon will do if you don’t have anything fancier).

• Leave it to set in the fridge for 1 hour.

Chocolate layer

• Get your Cookie and cream layer out of the fridge and set it nearby.

• Chop up the dark chocolate into small chunks and put in your bowl.

• Chop up your butter and put in bowl with the chocolate.

• Add vanilla extract and salt

• Reconstruct your Bain-marie and heat up the mixture, mixing it well as it heats.

• When it is fully incorporated, take it off the heat and mix in the condensed milk.

• Pour the mixture over the cookies and cream layer and smooth out the surface as before.
  • Don’t worry if some drips down the sides, you’ll trim the sides later on to make everything more pretty!
• Put in the fridge for another hour

Serving

• Take the fudge out of fridge
• Trim the sides to make it looks nice.

• Cut it into small squares

• Now all that’s left is to enjoy it!
