SUGAR COOKIE DOUGH FUDGE

Decorating sugar cookies has always been a fun Christmas tradition growing up in my house. However, I’d be lying if I didn’t admit that most of the dough ended up in my mouth, rather than the oven. Because let’s be honest, the dough usually does taste better than the cookie. Am I right, or am I right?

Which brings me to this week’s drool-worthy recipe of the week…

This ain’t your ordinary holiday fudge.

I went with a fudge recipe that I’ve used once before in my Circus Animal Cookie Fudge. It’s unbelievably easy to make since it requires very few ingredients AND there’s no candy thermometer involved. I also prefer the taste of this fudge over others because of it’s super special ingredient–cream cheese! Not only does the cream cheese give the fudge a nice little tang to counteract the sweetness of the sugar, but it also creates a soft, smooth, and phenomenally creamy texture. You never have to worry about dry, crumbly bits of fudge breaking off when you bite into these smooth and dreamy cubes of heaven.
