Golden Oreo Fudge

Oreos are a bit of a staple in my family. Even I buy them and I'm not that big a fan of them (sadly, my hands are magnets to yummy-sounding new flavors of my favorite sugary treats). Which is why it was a no-brainer when trying to figure out what kind of "golden" treat to make for Carly for her golden birthday that I should find a recipe that uses golden Oreos. After a quick search I decided on Golden Oreo Fudge from Annie's Noms (probably one of the quickest decisions I've ever made in picking out a recipe).

Ingredients

• One 14oz/397g can of Condensed Milk
• 1/2 stick (56g) unsalted butter
• 7.5 oz (213g) jar of Marshmallow Fluff
• 12 oz (340g) white chocolate, roughly broken up (some big and small bits are fine) (I just used white chocolate chips)
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
• Pinch of salt
• 2 1/2 cups (300g) Golden Oreo's crushed, reserve 6 Oreo's for the top if you want, and cut them into 4 (didn't do this but wish I had)
• Sprinkles optional but since this is Carly and her birthday, I figured they'd be a good and festive addition

Directions

1. Press a large piece of cling film into an 8x8 inch square pan with plenty of over hang and then repeat so you have two layers of cling film (this makes it strong enough to pull the fudge out of the pan once set). Spray with non-stick cooking spray; I used Wilton Bake Easy. (I decided to use foil since it's easier to line a pan with. I didn't spray it with non-stick cooking spray but wish I had)
2. Place all of the Oreo's (bar 6 if you want to place some on the top) into a large Ziploc bag and then beat with a rolling pin until all the Oreo's are crushed. Some smaller and larger pieces are fine.
3. Place condensed milk and butter into a medium sized saucepan over a medium heat, stirring until butter is melted and combined. You don't want any streaks of butter in the mix.
4. Add in the jar of Marshmallow fluff, turn the heat down to low and then beat until the fluff is entirely combined and smooth.
5. Add the white chocolate pieces in, one handful at a time, stirring in between each addition until the chocolate is melted. Once you've added in all of the chocolate, add in the vanilla extract and salt and stir to combine.
6. Take off of the heat and tip in the Golden Oreo rubble. Fold in gently until all the rubble is covered in the fudge mixture.
7. Pour fudge into your prepared pan and smooth over with the back of a wooden spoon/spatula until level. If you've cut 6 Oreo's into quarters for the top, sprinkle these over the fudge. (This was when I added the sprinkles instead. Should've done both)
8. Leave to cool for 1 hour before covering loosely with cling film and placing in the fridge for 2-3 hours, or until set.
9. Once set, pick up the overhanging cling film and wiggle around all the sides to loosen the fudge. Then transfer to a cutting board and slice into 16-24 squares. Big or small, you decide!

Carly loved them! (But then again, what teenager wouldn't like something with sugar and sprinkles?)
