Ingredient Notes
- White Chocolate Chips – Choose a good brand like Ghirardelli since this flavor is key to a delicious tasting fudge.
- Marshmallow Fluff – This is also called marshmallow cream (or “creme”). It’s essentially marshmallows in a spreadable, pourable form and gives this fudge a soft texture. Use our homemade marshmallow fluff for delicious results.
- Oreos – Crush them by placing the cookies in a plastic bag and rolling them with a rolling pin a few times. They don’t need to be pulverized or in crumbs. A few chunks are fine.
- Gel Food Coloring – A few drops give this fudge the traditional green minty color. And with the gel style of food coloring, a little goes a long way and it won’t cause your white chocolate to seize up!
How to Make Mint Fudge
Prepare Ingredients: Place white chocolate chips, marshmallow fluff, peppermint extract, and food coloring in a mixing bowl. Set it aside.
Boil Mixture: Heat butter, cream, sugar, and salt until boiling. Boil for 5 minutes, then pour over the ingredients in themixing bowl.
Make Fudge: Mix until smooth, then fold in crushed Oreos.
Set and Serve: Pour into a lined pan, let set for 2 hours, and cut into squares to enjoy.
Tips and Tricks
- Not all food coloring is the same. I use TWO drops of this Americolor Leaf Green Gel Food coloring. Minimal is best. And choose a gel, so it won’t cause your white chocolate to seize up. I love the Americolor gels, one drop goes a LONG way! I use it for tinting frosting on my Cream Cheese Sugar Cutout Cookies recipe!
- Swap out the Oreos for girl scout Thin Mints if desired!
- Line your baking dish with parchment paper before adding the fudge mixture. This makes it easy to grab the corners of the paper to remove the fudge from the pan once it’s set and cut into squares for serving.
- Store uncut fudge in airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks. Fudge stays freshest uncut.
- Freeze fudge in airtight freezer safe container for up to 3 months. Thaw on counter overnight.
