Christmas Cookie Mix Fudge
Have you tried this?? I had to when I saw it on social media real quick. Sounded interesting to use sugar cookie mix to make semi homemade fudge! There are tons of ways you can tweak this too. This used white chocolate chips so that the colors would shine thru. Use semi sweet chips for a whole other flavor. Candies on top like our microwave peppermint fudge is fun too.

Really, once you make one batch you’re going to want to change things up. Just use the same basic measurements but you could use chocolate cookie mix instead. Pair that with dark chocolate chips and get a really deep flavor. Other variations depend on how big your imagination is. You’ll need;
Cookie Mix Fudge Ingredients
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk 14 oz
- A few cups of white chocolate chips is what I like if I add colors into the mix
- or semi sweet for Christmas coal fudge, you can really change it up
- Coconut oil
- this will help you melt chocolate chips in microwave
- Butter salted, softened
- Sugar cookie mix, or your choice
- Sprinkles will bring color like red and green seen here
This will be made in a 8×8 or 9×9 pan. If you doubled this for a larger batch you could use a 9×13″ pan instead. Use a piece of parchment paper inside so you can lift it out to slice with a sharp knife nicely when solidified. Can be used to wrap it up to store later on too (if you have leftovers).
Peanut Butter Cookie Mix Fudge
It’s almost November which means we’re going to skip right over Thanksgiving right?? 😉 Just kidding. If you want to make a version of our microwave pumpkin fudge with this Betty Crocker mix you can. Just swap out the chocolate for peanut butter chips instead and a whole new flavor you have!
I loved these when my girls were young but wanted to help bake in the kitchen. Especially during the holidays when they wanted to do all the things but I worried about using heat sources. NO problem with this Christmas dessert idea. Our lunch lady peanut butter bars was another fave.
How to Make Fudge with Cookie Mix in the Microwave
- Use an 8 or 9 inch square baking pan, line this with parchment paper. Spray that with nonstick cooking spray.
- Place all of the ingredients EXCEPT the sprinkles into a microwave safe bowl.
- Heat on high for 30 seconds, then stir frequently with every further heating. Return to the microwave and heat in 30 second increments, stirring after each time until it is smooth.
- It MUST be well melted and smooth in order to solidify properly, keep that in mind with this sweet treat
- Stir in sprinkles if you choose to do so, reserving some for the top.
- Transfer your smooth mixture into the prepared pan. Top with additional sprinkles.
- Cover tightly with a piece of plastic wrap so it doesn’t touch the contents.
- Wrap around the pan tightly. Chill in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 hours until firm.
Use the parchment paper to lift the fudge from the prepared baking dish. Use a sharp knife to cut into equal sized squares and serve. I like to just cut what we are going to eat. If I have any left over a solid chunk is easier to wrap up tight to stay moist for later.
You can make white chocolate fudge in microwave with marshmallows here too. This is NO bake too meaning you’ll need to heat it up to get it to melt and meld together, but no need for your oven. We love that.
You never want to keep what’s left in your fridge. If you melted the ingredients well enough to begin with it will harden in just a few hours. When cooled, wrap your batch in plastic wrap tightly or inside foil. Store on your counter at room temperature and it will literally stay fresh for a few weeks this way.

- Use our air fryer gingerbread cookies recipe to make men or cookies your kids can decorate

I am sure you have one you make each year that you could share. The best are those with a story on the backend like our Lebkuchen recipe. It was something my Grandma made only in Dec. and made a tin for each family with a few others. We only got like 4 in that tin and I got dibs on those because we only got a few.
