Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Fudge

A sweet & creamy fudge that tastes exactly like chocolate chip cookie dough! No eggs so it’s perfectly safe to eat. If you’re looking for an extra sweet treat this Holiday and Christmas season then you have to try this chocolate chip cookie dough fudge!

This chocolate chip cookie dough fudge has a massive amount of sugar so if you’re on a no-sugar diet (during the Holidays?!? I could never do that!) or just don’t like putting cups and cups of sugar into a recipe then you should probably look away. But since you are here I am assuming you love the idea of chocolate chip cookie dough fudge as much as I do.

You mix up a simple egg-less cookie dough and then combine some ingredients in a saucepan on the stove top. Let it cool completely and then combine the two. It really is so simple to make. The hardest part is letting it firm up in the fridge for a few hours before you can taste it.

Ingredients
cookie dough

• 1/3 cup (5 1/3 tablespoons) butter, softened
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• pinch of salt
• 2 tablespoons heavy cream
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips

fudge

• 1/3 cup light brown sugar
• 1/3 cup (5 1/3 tablespoons) butter
• pinch of salt
• 1/3 cup heavy cream
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 4-5 cups powdered sugar
• 1/4 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

1. Line an 8×8-inch or 9X9-inch square baking pan with aluminum foil and set aside. Do not spray.
2. For the cookie dough: in a medium bowl (or in the bowl of a stand mixer) combine the butter and sugars and beat on medium speed until light and fluffy. Mix in the vanilla, salt, and heavy cream. Add the flour and mix until just combined. Fold in 1/2 cup of the chocolate chips. Set aside.
3. For the fudge: combine the brown sugar, butter, salt, and heavy cream in a medium saucepan. Stir over medium-low heat until the butter is melted and the brown sugar is dissolved. The mixture should be smooth and combined.
4. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla. Gradually stir in the powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time, until the mixture is smooth and thick. The mixture should be very thick. Let this mixture cool completely before proceeding so the chocolate chips do not melt when combined.
5. Add the fudge base to the cookie dough bowl and stir to combine. Spread the fudge into the prepared baking pan and press into an even layer. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 chocolate chips on top of the fudge and lightly press them into the batter.
6. Chill until set, about 3-4 hours, before cutting into pieces.
