Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 48 oz. White Chocolate Chips
  • 4 tablespoons Butter
  • 4 containers Canned Vanilla Frosting
  • 4 Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes (crumbled)

Decorations

  • Green Sanding Sugar
  • Red Cookie Icing


Instructions

  1. Prepare Chocolate Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine half of the white chocolate chips (24 oz.), half of the butter (2 tablespoons), and two containers of vanilla frosting. Microwave the mixture in one-minute intervals, stirring thoroughly after each interval until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  2. Line and Grease Sheet Pan: Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and lightly grease the parchment to prevent sticking. This will make removing the fudge easier once set.
  3. Pour and Smooth First Layer: Pour the prepared chocolate mixture evenly into the sheet pan and smooth the surface with a spatula for an even layer.
  4. Add Crumbled Cakes: Sprinkle the crumbled Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cakes evenly over the chocolate layer to add texture and flavor.
  5. Repeat Chocolate Mixture Layer: Repeat the chocolate mixture preparation process by melting the remaining half of the chocolate chips with the remaining butter and two containers of vanilla frosting, then pour this second layer evenly over the crumbled cakes and smooth out the top.
  6. Chill to Set: Place the sheet pan in the refrigerator for one hour to allow the fudge to set firmly.
  7. Unmold and Cut: Once set, remove the fudge from the sheet pan. Flip the parchment paper over to have a smooth top surface. Use a metal cookie cutter shaped like Christmas trees to cut out individual shapes. Thicker cutters work best for clean cuts.
  8. Cut Remaining Fudge: Slice any leftover fudge into squares to maximize portions.
  9. Decorate: Sprinkle the fudge pieces with green sanding sugar. Use red cookie icing to pipe decorative lines onto each piece, enhancing the festive look.
  10. Serve and Store: Serve immediately or store the fudge in a container with a lid to maintain freshness. Refrigerate if not serving right away.

Notes

  • This fudge combines creamy white chocolate with festive Christmas treats, making it a perfect holiday dessert or gift.
  • Using canned vanilla frosting adds a rich and smooth texture that helps bind the fudge.
  • Microwaving in intervals and stirring prevents burning and ensures a glossy, smooth mixture.
  • Flipping the fudge after setting creates a smooth top that looks polished for cutting and decorating.
  • Thick metal cookie cutters produce clean shapes and minimize crumble.
  • Store fudge in a cool place with a lid to maintain texture and freshness for several days.
