Try your hand at this recipe for real condensed milk fudge
Ingredients:
- 1 (385 g) can condensed milk
- 500 ml (2 cups) sugar
- 25 ml golden syrup
- 75 ml water
- 60 g butter
- 5 ml vanilla essence
How to:
- Put sugar and water into a large heavy saucepan.
- Stir over low heat until the sugar has dissolved.
- Add the butter and syrup and stir until the butter has melted.
- Add the condensed milk and stir until it comes to the boil.
- Boil very slowly on low heat, stirring every minute or 2, until soft ball stage (the mixture will darken to a deep caramel colour and will start to form sugary crystals on the sides, sounding like sand when you scrape it).
- Remove from the stove, add the vanilla and beat it with a wooden spoon for 5-10 minutes until it starts to thicken (beating the fudge will ensure a great texture when completely cooled)
- Pour into a greased pan and leave to cool.
- Cut into squares when cold.
