Five Fabulous Fudges!


On my quest to find great home-made fudge, I found another recipe I wanted to try. This time I had help from Hannah, my soon to be Sister in law. We rummaged around the baking cupboards and put together five flavour combinations – dark chocolate and pistachio, marshmallow and crunchie, cranberry and macadamia, maple pecan and peanut butter. 

Once the flavours were decided we got on with making the basic fudge. It took a while for the mix to reach the correct temperature on the sugar thermometer but when it finally got there we divided the mix into separate bowls with the various additions and poured into mini traybake foils. After a couple hours of cooling time we eagerly went to check out our results. We cut up the different fudge bars and demolished our samples. The flavour was excellent but there seemed to be a downside. The fudge was very soft; I think this was down to under beating the mixture. I will definitely make this recipe again, just to perfect it, you know?!
