Snickerdoodle Fudge
Snickerdoodle Fudge! Five ingredients, 10 minutes, and all of the wonderful flavors of snickerdoodle cookies. A reliable addition to holiday cookie trays.
This recipe is sponsored by Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed MilkLet’s talk holiday baking, shall we?! Are you knee-deep into it yet? What is on your must-make list? Our baking lists have changed over the last few years with Joseph’s peanut allergy diagnosis (no peanut butter blossoms, buckeyes, or peanut butter cup cookies 😭), but one thing that remains a constant is fudge. It’s a quintessential holiday cookie tray mainstay and, if you use the right recipe, it’s straightforward. SO EASY.
This year, we're putting a festive spin on traditional fudge and bringing you SNICKERDOODLE FUDGE!
If you’ve never tried foolproof chocolate fudge before, it is by far the easiest way to get rich, consistent fudge time after time. With just a few ingredients – chocolate chips, Eagle Brand sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla – and less than 10 minutes on the stovetop, it comes out reliable each and every time.
To give this a snickerdoodle flair (we cannot say the word “flair” without thinking of the movie Office Space, who’s with us?), we swapped in white chocolate chips for the semisweet chocolate, and added a cinnamon-sugar sprinkle on top.
Straightforward and so deliciously festive.
You may remember that last month we shared with you Caramel Apple Magic Bars, which we made as part of Eagle Brand’s Uncookie Exchange, and we're back with this fudge as part of the same initiative.
What is it all about? It’s about simplicity, embracing less time-consuming recipes, and giving yourself grace this holiday season. Because we all know that it doesn’t take long before the joy of the holidays gets sucked right out of you as the to-do list of cards, baking, shopping, parties, wrapping, and more grows longer by the day. So instead of spending an entire day churning out dozens upon dozens of cookies, take less than 30 minutes and whip up this snickerdoodle fudge.
This is SO our season of life right now.
This creamy white chocolate fudge base is topped with a cinnamon-sugar topping to recreate the flavor of one of the most popular Christmas cookies around – snickerdoodles. If you’ve been a fan of those crinkly, sparkly, cinnamon-sugar cookies (and really, who isn’t?!), you are going to love this fudge!
