Add crushed cookies: Stir in ½ cup crushed sugar cookies, gingerbread, or shortbread into the melted chocolate mixture.
Chocolate swirls: Use 1 ½ cups white chocolate and 1 ½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, dividing the sweetened condensed milk between them and melting separately until smooth. Pour the white chocolate mixture into the baking pan first. Drizzle in the semi-sweet chocolate mixture. Use a toothpick to create swirls.
Nutty crunch: Sprinkle ¼-1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts on top. Candied nuts are great for this too.
Peppermint twist: Use crushed candy canes instead of sprinkles for a minty holiday vibe.

Prepping ahead or need to store leftover fudge? Here’s how to keep this holiday fudge fresh and delicious!
Room Temperature
Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week. Serve at room temperature for the creamiest texture. Keep away from direct heat and sunlight.
Fridge
Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
Freezing
Wrap individual squares in plastic wrap and place in a freezer-safe bag for up to 2 months. Thaw at room temperature for 10–15 minutes before serving.
These simple tricks will ensure your quick sugar cookie fudge shines every time!
Don't forget to stir: Mix well after each microwave interval, otherwise the chocolate at the bottom will burn.
Clean cuts: Wipe the knife with a warm, damp cloth or kitchen towel in between cuts for the perfect squares with clean edges.
Don't let it cool: Add the sprinkles immediately after pouring the fudge mixture into the pan. If you let it cool too much, the sprinkles won't stick well.
Use cookie cutters: Lightly grease Christmas-themed cookie cutters with cooking spray or butter. Use them to cut out your favorite shapes from the fudge.
