FABULOUS FUDGE



Fabulous Fudge image

Provided by Anne Thornton, Host of Dessert First

Time 3h20m

Yield about 64 squares

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup milk chocolate chips
Fine sea salt
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 cup chopped walnuts

Steps:

  • Add the condensed milk to a small saucepan. Pour the chips into the pan, give a stir, and make sure that the milk coats all the chips. Add a pinch of salt. Cook over low heat until it's melted and glossy and a looks like a thick, hot fudge.
  • Add the vanilla and walnuts, making sure to coat the nuts with the fudge. (I like to make double triple batches of this and freeze the extra.)
  • Line the bottom and sides of a 9-inch square baking pan with foil. You want to leave about 4 inches of overhang on the 2 opposite sides. These serve as your handles to remove the fudge from the pan in 1 piece, so make sure that there is enough of the overhang for you to have a solid grip.
  • Pour the fudge into the pan and smooth it out, getting it in all the corners. Let the fudge come to room temperature, then put in the fridge for 3 hours or so. This will make it easier to cut.
  • Pop out of the pan and cut into little pieces.

JO'S FABULOUS FUDGE



Jo's Fabulous Fudge image

If you like a smooth creamy luxurious fudge, not at all sugary or hard, and one that is easy to cut into portions without crumbling, then this is the one. Definitely not part of a daily diet. Make for special occasions only.

Provided by SauceCatering

Categories     Candy

Time 15m

Yield 60 pieces, 60 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

800 g sweetened condensed milk
2 cups soft brown sugar, firmly packed
250 g butter
100 ml sugar syrup
3 tablespoons golden syrup
400 g white chocolate, chopped
1 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Spray and line with non-stick baking paper, a 20 x 30 cm, quite deep (at least 4 cm) tin, or 2 smaller tins.
  • Place all ingredients, except the chocolate and vanilla, in a large heavy based saucepan and stir over medium heat until the butter melts and the sugar dissolves. Bring to the boil and boil gently until it becomes very thick and changes colour to a dark caramel brown paper shade - about 6 minutes, to the soft ball stage, 116°C on a sugar thermometer. Stir often to prevent it catching on the bottom - I find a silicon spatula the best gadget to stir with. Remove from heat and stand until the bubbles subside. Stir in the chocolate and vanilla until melted and smooth.
  • Pour into the prepared tin and smooth the surface. Cool to room temperature (about 3 hours) then refrigerate until firm. Cut into squares. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 6 weeks - if you're lucky.

  • Then fold in the remaining egg.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  • Place the pan of brownie batter into a larger pan, like a roasting pan and fill that pan with hot water half way up the side of the smaller pan containing the batter.
  • Place the pan on the middle rack of the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes.
  • Turn off the oven but keep the brownies in the closed oven for another 10 minutes.
  • After 10 minutes, remove the brownies pan from the larger water bath pan and place it on a wire rack to cool while making the glaze.
  • To make the glaze, heat the cream and the dark chocolate in a double boiler over simmering water.
  • Stir until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth.
  • Pour the hot glaze over the brownies and smooth it out with a spatula.
  • Set the pan aside to cool completely.
