1. Prepare Your Pan:
Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, allowing the sides to hang over the edge for easy fudge removal.
2. Melt the Chocolate:
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk. Stir continuously until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
3. Add Peppermint Extract & Color:
Remove from heat and stir in the peppermint extract. If desired, add a few drops of green food coloring and stir until evenly mixed for a Christmas-themed hue.
4. Fold in the Mint Oreos:
Gently fold in the chopped Mint Oreos, ensuring they’re evenly distributed throughout the fudge mixture.
5. Transfer and Set:
Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish, smoothing the top with a spatula. Garnish with extra chopped Mint Oreos and crushed candy canes for an extra festive touch.
6. Chill the Fudge:
Refrigerate the fudge for 2-3 hours or until it is completely set and firm.
7. Cut and Serve:
Once set, lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment paper and cut into small squares. Enjoy the cool, minty flavor of this decadent Christmas treat!
