Tips:

  • To achieve the perfect consistency for your fudge, use a candy thermometer to measure the temperature of the mixture. The ideal temperature for butterscotch fudge is 234°F (112°C).
  • Do not stir the fudge after removing it from heat. This will cause the fudge to crystallize and become grainy.
  • For a smoother fudge, use a marble slab or a metal pan to cool the fudge. This will help to prevent the fudge from sticking to the pan and will make it easier to cut.
  • To store the fudge, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and place it in an airtight container. Fudge can be stored at room temperature for up to 2 weeks or in the refrigerator for up to 3 months.

Conclusion:

With its rich, buttery flavor and chewy texture, spiced butterscotch fudge is a classic candy that is sure to please everyone. By following these tips, you can easily make delicious homemade fudge that is perfect for any occasion. Enjoy!
