Vanilla Fudge Source: Better Homes and Gardens Magazine, December 1996
Yields 1 pound
2 cups granulated sugar 1 (5 ounce) can evaporated milk 1/3 cup milk 1/8 teaspoon salt 1/4 cup butter 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 cup broken nuts (optional)
Line an 8 x 4 x 2-inch loaf pan with foil, extending foil over edges of pan. Butter foil; set aside.
Butter the sides of a heavy 2-quart saucepan. In saucepan combine sugar, evaporated milk, milk, and salt. Cook and stir over medium-high heat to boiling. Carefully clip a candy thermometer to the side of the saucepan. Cook and stir over medium-low-heat to 238 degrees F, soft-ball stage (this should take 25 to 35 minutes).
Immediately remove saucepan from heat. Add butter and vanilla extract, but do not stir. Cool mixture, without stirring, to 110 degrees F on the thermometer, lukewarm - about 55 minutes).
Remove candy thermometer from saucepan. Beat vigorously with a wooden spoon until fudge becomes very thick and just starts to lose its gloss (about 10 minutes total). Do not over-beat. Immediately spread fudge into the prepared pan. Score into 1-inch squares while warm. Top each square with a piece of nut, if desired. When candy is firm, use the foil to lift the fudge out of the pan. Cut into squares. Store, tightly covered, in the refrigerator.
Makes about 1 pound.

Crumbly Fudge Recipe 1 can condensed milk (+/- 392g) 500g Sugar 120ml water 4tbsp butter 2tsp Vanilla essence
Mix sugar, water, butter and condensed milk together in a somewhat tall pot (the mixture rises quickly) and bring to a gentle boil. While the fudge is boiling, stir continously with a wooden spoon for about half an hour, to ensure no sugar burns to the bottom of the pot. Nearing the half-hour mark, the fudge should then have become greatly reduced in quantity, thick, sticky, and most importantly, should have the typical darker "brown" colour of fudge (but dark muddy brown means it's turned into toffee). It's better to leave it on longer if unsure, than to take it off the boil prematurely. Once it looks ready, take off the boil, add the Vanilla Essence, and beat thoroughly for a minute, then pour mixture into a greased baking tray and allow to cool. Cut into squares once cooled properly (could take up to 6 hours). The result should be a fudge that is solid, but crumbly around the edges when you cut it (as opposed to the soft and chewy Nougat variety). It should also have a grainy texture. It may take a few attempts to perfect this recipe in a way you enjoy it the most; also note that if your mixture turns into toffee or fails completely, it's best to try again another day with new ingredients as failures often happen for no discernable reason. | |
