- Chop 12 Oreos into small pieces and set aside.
- Add the white chocolate and the condensed milk to a microwave-safe bowl and heat in the microwave using 1-minute increments until melted.
- Stir the chopped Oreos and mint extract into the melted chocolate.
- Pour the mixture into a 9×9-inch dish and sprinkle with additional chopped Oreos.
- Let sit overnight before cutting and serving.
Expert Tips
- Use a large knife to chop the Oreos. Alternatively, place the Oreo cookies into a zip-top bag, seal the bag and whack it lightly with a rolling pin to break the cookies into pieces.
- Add a touch of green food coloring to the chocolate mixture before stirring in the cookie for a brighter green hue.
- If you can’t wait overnight to try this, pop into the fridge for a few hours to speed up the process.
- Use a slightly larger pan (9×13 inch) for smaller, bite-sized pieces of fudge.
- Line your baking dish with parchment paper before pouring in the chocolate cookie mixture. When the fudge is set, simply pull everything out of the tray for easy cutting and easy cleanup.
Delicious Variations
- Use Mint Oreo Cookie – You can make this recipe with regular Oreos, or you can use the mint-flavored ones. Both are a great option.
- Use different extracts – You can completely change the flavor of this fudge by using other extracts. Orange extract is a favorite of mine and berry extracts would be delicious too.
Make Ahead and Storage
- Make Ahead – This mint oreo fudge recipe keeps for a long time, so you can certainly make this in advance.
- Store – Store your St. Patrick’s Day fudge in an airtight container. It will keep on the counter for about a week and in the fridge for up to 3 weeks.
- Freeze – To freeze fudge, wrap it tightly and store it in the freezer for up to 3 months. Thaw it overnight in the fridge.
FAQs
The food coloring will brighten this fudge into a beautiful shade of green, but you don’t have to use it. The color does not affect the taste; it’s merely aesthetic.
