One of the best things about Christmas surely has to be the food.
This fudge like creation has become a regular feature in my December kitchen.
It is eye wateringly simple!
I often pop a few pieces in a bag with a pretty ribbon and gift it.
Now it isn’t actually fudge in the true sense of the word, in fact I would argue because we are not using tons of sugar, just a tin of condensed milk, with dark chocolate, it is almost a healthy option, isn’t it?
Go on give it ago, get older children to join in.
Ingredients
350g Dark Choco;ate
1 tin of condensed milk
30g Butter
Whatever else you want to add -see end for inspiration
Step 1
Add all the ingredients into the pan together.
Step 2
Gently stir on a low heat until everything is melted and combined.
At this point you add whatever you want, then give it a good stir.
Step 3
Pour the mixture into any foil lined dish.
Pop it into the fridge to set.
Step 4
Cut it into pieces, any size you fancy.
I then pop it in a plastic container into the freezer.
It doesn’t actually freeze and can be eaten straight from the freezer.
Enjoy!!!!
Suggestions
Vanilla Extract
Cranberries
Pistachio nuts

Have a lovely day!
