Everyone loves Oreo cookies so it felt only right that I should create an easy slow cooker Oreo fudge to add to our ever expanding fudge flavour collection.

This delicious fudge is one that is perfect for any season and any occasion. The Oreos work so well with the white chocolate, giving a really moreish quality and one that any Oreo fan will appreciate.

Slow Cooker Oreo Fudge

This chocolate fudge recipe is similar to our Cookies & Cream fudge which has a fine layer of crushed biscuits on the top rather than chunks of biscuit. The chunks of chopped Oreos work better though with the sandwich style of Oreos although you could top with a layer of crushed Oreo cookies if you wanted to. I’m sure crushed Oreos would work well if you wanted to give it a go.

Although we use white chocolate for this easy Oreo fudge recipe, you could use milk chocolate but the flavour may overpower the Oreo biscuits. You can also use any kind of chocolate sandwich cookies but we love the iconic flavour that Oreos give.

We use a square eight inch baking dish for this recipe but you can use any size tin you like. I’ve seen fudge made in loaf tins and cut into slices or big baking pans and cut into squares. The choice is yours. 

How long does this Oreo fudge last for?

This home made Oreo slow cooker fudge keeps well in the fridge, in an airtight container for a couple of weeks. The flavour matures over the first couple of days of it being in the fridge so you get the full flavour after it’s been in the fridge for a few days.

Can you make this fudge in the microwave?

Many people make fudge in the microwave but I much prefer the control I have when I make it in the crock pot or slow cooker. If you don’t have a slow cooker, make it in the microwave by putting the ingredients in a microwave safe bowl and heating on short bursts in the microwave, stirring in between. Then follow the instructions as per the recipe below.

Can you make slow cooker fudge with evaporated milk?

Our slow cooker fudge works because condensed milk has a really high sugar content, needed to create that beautifully rich fudge. Evaporated milk isn’t the same, doesn’t have that sugar content and isn’t thick enough to help the fudge thicken and set. You can’t use evaporated milk in these recipes – so get some condensed milk instead.

Do you cook slow cooker fudge high or low temperature?

We always cook fudge on a high slow cooker temperature setting and it takes around 40 minutes in total. You could make it on the low setting but it would take longer and would still need to be stirred regularly. You may as well keep the slow cooker on high and be done in under an hour!

When cooking, is the slow cooker fudge lid on or off?

When making slow cooker fudge, you need to remove the slow cooker lid otherwise excess moisture would be retained in the slow cooker pot and the fudge wouldn’t thicken as it needs to.
