Ingredients
  

For the fudge
  • 3 cups white chocolate chips Use high-quality for better flavor
  • 1 cup sugar cookie mix I used Betty Crocker; a plain vanilla cake or cookie mix works similarly
  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk 14 ounces
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup holiday sprinkles divided; use nonpareils or jimmies
  • 3-4 ounces almond bark or additional white chocolate for drizzling

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Prepare a medium-sized double boiler: simmer water in the bottom pan and place a heatproof bowl or top pan above it.
  2. Add the white chocolate chips, sugar cookie mix, sweetened condensed milk, and butter to the top of the double boiler.
  3. Heat on medium and stir constantly until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth.
  4. Continue stirring for 2–3 minutes to fully combine the ingredients and hydrate the sugar cookie mix.
  5. Remove the top bowl from heat but keep it over the warm double boiler while you work.
  6. Stir in the vanilla and half of the holiday sprinkles until evenly distributed.
  7. Line a 9x9” baking dish with parchment and spray the paper with cooking spray.
  8. Pour the fudge mixture into the pan and smooth the top with an offset spatula or the back of a spoon.
  9. Press the remaining sprinkles gently into the surface so they stick.
  10. Chill in the refrigerator for 2–3 hours, until the fudge is firm to the touch.
  11. Lift the parchment out of the pan and place it on a cutting board. Cut into squares on a hard surface.
  12. Melt the almond bark or white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second bursts, stirring between bursts until smooth.
  13. Transfer melted bark to a zip-top bag, snip a small corner, and drizzle over the fudge, or drizzle with a fork if you prefer.
  14. Let the drizzle set completely, then serve or package.
