Mrs. Claus' Christmas Cookie Fudge
Mrs. Claus' Christmas Cookie Fudge is one of the best Christmas dessert recipes you'll ever come across. Not only is this easy fudge recipe from Mrs. Claus' recipe box, but it's also on Santa's nice list!
This fudge has a white chocolate base that's enhanced with a bit of almond extract to really bring out all of its sweetness. The almond extract also makes the fudge taste a bit like a batch of spritz Christmas cookies. It's not too overwhelming and combines well with a bit of vanilla, but still stands out on its own.
One of the best parts about this fudge recipe is that you can use pieces of your favorite homemade Christmas cookies to make it! While we used Biscoff cookies, you could use any of your favorite Christmas cookies, including spritz, criss-cross, gingerbread, and molasses. The possibilities for this delicious fudge recipe are practically endless!
