I bought some sprinkles on Amazon, but you can use your favorite sprinkles. Red and green sprinkles are fun for Christmas. The link is in the recipe card below.

You can add red, white, and blue festive sprinkles for the Fourth of July or change them out for any holiday.

Or, you can forgo all of the sprinkles and stick to a creamy white chocolate fudge recipe.

Can You Microwave The Fudge?

Yes, you can also make this Christmas fudge recipe in the microwave.

Simply melt the chocolate chips for about one minute, stir to melt, and microwave in increments of 10 seconds if more time is needed.

Add the rest of the ingredients, pour into the square pan, and add the holiday sprinkles on top.

Is Evaporated Milk Or Condensed Milk Better For Fudge?

Both ingredients make delicious fudge. Evaporated milk is the more traditional ingredient for making fudge. You must cook the fudge that contains evaporated milk.

If using condensed milk, you can microwave the fudge. You will most likely not need sugar if making the fudge with sweetened condensed milk.

Notes

The fudge does not have to be refrigerated but will last longer if kept in the refrigerator.
The parchment paper is optional. It makes it easy to lift the fudge out of the pan after it sets up. If you do not use parchment paper, lightly grease the pan with some cooking spray.
Keep the fudge in an airtight container or cover it with some plastic wrap.
I used Betty Crocker Sugar Cookie Mix for the recipe.

  1. Substituted 10oz bag of Reese’s peanut butter chips since I could not find the white ones & added ~1T of butter!!! Anyway, made in the microwave and was very easy to prep; so will see how thing are after it has set-up… My husband “licked” the bowl and approves so far — hahaha Worked great after setting up overnight at room temperatureand cut very nicely. Might add more chips next time to “thin” it out a bit or add a little milk — BUT as is was VERY well received! Thanks for the recipe…

      Licking the bowl is always a great idea! Glad to hear you both liked it!

    Made this last Christmas as part of my gifting. People were obsessed! Expecting my second baby and Iโ€™m craving it so Iโ€™ll be making tomorrow! So sweet but soooo good! Basically like edible cookie dough!

    Mine seems very gritty, is that supposed to be like that?

    1. Julie Pollitt says:

      It could be that the cookie mix is a little gritty. Maybe next time you can let it cook a tad longer so the cookie mix will dissolve more. What brand did you get for the cookie mix?
