Ingredients
  

For the fudge bars
  • 1 package vanilla cream sandwich cookies (about 24 cookies) Whole unbroken cookies are used.
  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk (14 ounces)
  • 1.5 cups white chocolate chips
  • 4 ounces cream cheese (softened) Ensure it is softened for mixing.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and lightly grease a clear glass 9x13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
  2. Arrange the whole unbroken vanilla cream sandwich cookies in an even layer across the bottom of the dish.
Cooking
  1. In a medium microwave-safe bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk, white chocolate chips, softened cream cheese, and vanilla extract.
  2. Microwave the mixture in 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth and thick.
  3. Pour the fudge mixture evenly over the cookies, making sure to spread it into the corners.
  4. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the top is set and the edges are lightly golden.
  5. Let the bars cool completely, then chill for at least 1 hour before cutting them into 16 bars.
  6. Optional: For added flavor, drizzle melted dark or semisweet chocolate over the bars before slicing.

Notes

These fudge bars can be served as a dessert at family gatherings, parties, or just as a sweet snack at home. Pair them with a glass of milk or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delightful combination! Store in an airtight container for up to a week in the refrigerator or freeze for longer storage. Make sure your cream cheese is softened before mixing for a smooth consistency. You can use any type of sandwich cookies for variation.
