White Chocolate Cocoa Pebbles Fudge
Make and share this White Chocolate Cocoa Pebbles Fudge dessert recipe with friends and family for an easy Christmas treat. It makes a great gift to give away for the holidays, but you will want to keep it all for yourself!
If you have read my blog for any amount of time at all, you know it’s no secret that I am a kid at heart when it comes to food. There is just something that gets me all nostalgic when it comes to foods I ate as a kid….anyone else? I ate Fruity Pebbles and Cocoa Pebbles like it was my job when I was growing up. I still pick up a box at the store every once in a while (and hide it from my husband). If I don’t end up baking something with it, like this White Chocolate Cocoa Pebbles Fudge, I will just eat it the old-fashioned way with a huge bowl and some milk. I love incorporating cereal into my desserts!
This White Chocolate Cocoa Pebbles Fudge is a nice alternative to traditional chocolate fudge and is SO easy to make. I frequently make white chocolate fudge to give as gifts for Christmas and Valentine’s Day because I am a huge white chocolate fan. I actually prefer it to milk chocolate (yup, I’m that crazy person in your life). This fudge has the best of both worlds because it has BOTH white and regular chocolate in it. No need to choose when it comes to this! This is the white chocolate lovers’ equivalent to heaven. Creamy, sweet fudge that will be the perfect addition to your holiday dessert trays. Enjoy!

- 12 oz good-quality white chocolate baking bar (I used Ghirardelli)
- 8 oz full-fat cream cheese, softened to room temperature
- 3 and ½ cups powdered sugar
- 1½ tsp vanilla
- 2 cups Cocoa Pebbles, divided
- Line an 8x8 pan with foil and spray with cooking spray.
- In the bowl of stand mixer or using a hand mixer, beat together cream cheese, powdered sugar and vanilla until smooth and fully blended.
- Melt the white chocolate according to directions on package.
- Pour melted chocolate into cream cheese mixture and mix together until mixed thoroughly.
- Turn mixer to low and stir in 1½ cups Cocoa Pebbles until mixed in.
- Press mixture into prepared pan.
- Press remaining ½ cup Cocoa Pebbles onto the top of fudge and press gently into the white chocolate mixture so they stick (some will come loose while you're cutting the fudge, but that's OK).
- Chill fudge for approximately 1 hour or until set. This will make it easier to slice.
- Cut into squares and serve or store in an airtight container for up to 5 days. This fudge also freezes well.
