Step 1
Start by lining a 9x9 inch baking dish with aluminum foil and set it aside. To make the cookie dough pieces, mix together the melted margarine, brown sugar, and salt in a bowl. Then stir in the flour until it comes together into a dough, and knead in a quarter cup of chocolate chips. Shape the dough into a disk about half to three-quarters of an inch thick, place it on a piece of plastic wrap, and gently press it into a square using your hands. Pop the dough square into the freezer for about 10 minutes so it firms up, then slice it into half-inch squares. Keep these dough pieces chilled in the fridge while you prepare the fudge.

Step 2
Next, beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Stir in the melted chocolate chips and vanilla extract until everything is well combined. Gently fold in the cookie dough squares, being careful not to break them up too much. Spread the mixture evenly into your foil-lined dish, then refrigerate it for at least an hour until it’s set. When it’s firm, lift the fudge out using the foil, cut it into squares, and enjoy!
