Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour (heat-treated for safety)
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 pinch salt
Wet Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 can (14 ounces/396 grams) sweetened condensed milk
Chocolate and Decorative Ingredients:
- 2 cups white chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup mini M&Ms (for cookie dough layer)
- 1/2 cup mini M&Ms (for topping)
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, cream butter with brown and granulated sugars until the mixture becomes airy and pale.
- Incorporate milk and vanilla extract, blending until the mixture reaches a smooth, uniform consistency.
- Gradually introduce heat-treated flour and salt, mixing carefully to form a cohesive cookie dough.
- Gently fold mini M&Ms into the prepared dough, distributing them evenly throughout.
- Select a medium saucepan and combine white chocolate chips with sweetened condensed milk for the fudge base.
- Melt the chocolate mixture over low heat, stirring continuously until achieving a glossy, completely smooth texture (approximately 3-5 minutes).
- Remove from heat and introduce vanilla extract, stirring to integrate thoroughly.
- Prepare an 8×8-inch pan by lining with parchment paper, ensuring edges extend for easy removal.
- Spread the cookie dough uniformly across the bottom of the prepared pan, creating an even base layer.
- Carefully pour the warm white chocolate fudge over the cookie dough, using a spatula to distribute evenly.
- Scatter remaining mini M&Ms across the surface, gently pressing them into the warm fudge to secure.
- Allow the dessert to cool at room temperature for 30 minutes, then transfer to the refrigerator for 2-3 hours until completely set.
- Extract the fudge using parchment paper edges and slice into precise, bite-sized squares.
Notes
- Heat-treat flour by microwaving or baking to eliminate potential bacteria, ensuring safe raw dough consumption.
- Use room temperature ingredients for smoother cookie dough mixing and better texture integration.
- Choose mini M&Ms for more even distribution and balanced flavor throughout the fudge layers.
- Refrigerate fudge completely before cutting to achieve clean, precise square edges and prevent crumbling.
