    Thermomix Chocolate Fudge

    May 10, 2016

    Making Thermomix Chocolate Fudge couldn't possibly be easier - just 2 ingredients (sweetened condensed milk and chocolate) and 10 minutes is all it takes!

    Making Thermomix Chocolate Fudge couldn't possibly be easier - just 2 ingredients (sweetened condensed milk and chocolate) and 10 minutes is all it takes!

    Perfect for homemade Christmas gifts, a cheeky late night dessert or a sweet treat at parties!

    Soft chocolate fudge pieces.

    One of my favourite things to make in the Thermomix is fudge!

    It's so quick, easy and delicious!

    Just like our chocolate mint fudge, rum & raisin fudge and cookies and cream fudge, this simple chocolate fudge recipe is the BEST!

    Note: This is a soft fudge and needs to be kept in the fridge.

    Why You're Going To Love This Recipe

    What's not to love about smooth and creamy homemade chocolate fudge!

    • 2 Ingredients - Made using just sweetened condensed milk and chocolate... this has got to be the easiest recipe ever!
    • 10 Minute Recipe - It takes just a few minutes to prepare chocolate fudge in your Thermomix.
    • One Bowl Recipe - the best thing about making fudge in your Thermomix, is that you only have one bowl to wash up afterwards!
    • Versatile - whether you're making fudge for dessert, Christmas gifts or party food, it's the perfect sweet treat for any occasion.

    What You Need

    It takes JUST 2 INGREDIENTS to make chocolate fudge!

    The two ingredients for chocolate fudge.
    • Sweetened condensed milk - use full fat (not skim) sweetened condensed milk as it sets firmer. I recommend using the Nestle brand.
    • Milk Chocolate - use good quality chocolate (such as Cadbury or Nestle). I also recommend using chocolate melts or cooking chocolate as it melts easier. Chocolate chips are NOT suitable for this recipe as they do not melt easily.

    Step By Step Thermomix Instructions

    It couldn't be easier to make Thermomix chocolate fudge... just 3 simple steps and 10 minutes is all it takes!

    Step 1 - Add The Ingredients

    Break the chocolate into pieces in the Thermomix bowl. Add the sweetened condensed milk.

    Step 2 - Cook

    Cook the mixture for 10 minutes, 100 degrees, Speed 3.

    Step 3 - Chill

    Working quickly, pour the mixture into the prepared baking tin.

    Chill for 6 hours in the fridge (preferably overnight) before cutting into pieces.

    Expert Tips

    Follow our tips for perfect fudge... every single time!

    • Use full fat sweetened condensed milk (not skim sweetened condensed milk). This sets firmer and has a better texture and flavour.
    • Use a good quality chocolate (such as Cadbury, Nestle or Lindt).
    • You can use dark chocolate or white chocolate in place of milk chocolate if you prefer.
    • Have your tin prepped before starting (greased and lined). This allows you to quickly pour the fudge in before it starts to set.
    • Allow the fudge to set in the fridge for 6 hours (preferably overnight) before cutting into pieces.
    • Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
    • Note: This is a soft fudge and needs to be kept in the fridge.

    FAQs

    Can I make this recipe without a Thermomix?

    Yes, you can make this chocolate fudge without a Thermomix by melting and stirring the chocolate and sweetened condensed milk until thickened in a microwave or on the stove-top.

    Can I add sprinkles or M&Ms etc to this recipe?

    Stir any add-ins through just before pouring into the tin. Sprinkle 100s and 1000s, coconut, chopped nuts etc over the top of the fudge once it's in the tin.

    Can you freeze chocolate fudge?

    Yes you can. Simply chill in the fridge overnight. Cut into pieces and freeze in an airtight container for up 3 months. Allow to defrost in the fridge before consuming.

    The ingredients for banana choc chip muffins.
    • Bananas - the riper the bananas, the better! Use 2 large bananas (approximately 260g) in this recipe
    • Butter - you can use either salted or unsalted butter
    • Vanilla Extract - or vanilla essence
    • Honey - or substitute with rice malt syrup
    • Milk - for the best results, I recommend using full fat/full cream milk
    • Eggs - have your eggs at room temperature before using
    • Self-Raising Flour - use store-bought self-raising flour or make your own by sifting 2 teaspoons of baking powder through every 1 cup of plain flour
    • Caster Sugar - also known as superfine sugar
    • Baking Powder & Bi-Carbonate Soda - along with the self-raising flour, this helps the muffins to rise perfectly
    • Ground Cinnamon - for that classic banana and cinnamon flavour combination
    • Salt - adding a pinch of salt to sweet recipes helps to balance and enhance the flavours
    • Chocolate Chips - use regular chocolate chips, chocolate bits or baking bits

    Step By Step Instructions

    Our Thermomix Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins couldn't be easier to make!

    Please scroll to the recipe card below for ingredient quantities and the full detailed method.

    Step 1 - Mash The Banana

    Place chopped bananas into the Thermomix bowl and mix together until mashed.

    Step 4 - Add The Dry Ingredients

    Add the self-raising flour, caster sugar, baking powder, bi-carb soda, cinnamon and salt to the bowl and mix until only just combined - a few small lumps are fine.

    TIP: Be careful not to over-mix as this will cause the muffins to be dense.

    Step 5 - Add The Chocolate Chips

    Add the chocolate chips to the muffin mixture and mix through on REVERSE.

    It's important to make sure your blades are moving in Reverse for this step so that they don't chop the chocolate chips into tiny pieces!

    Step 6 - Bake

    Bake the muffins until lightly golden and they spring back when touched lightly in the centre.

    Expert Tips & FAQ

    Here's our top tips for the perfect Thermomix Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins!

    How do I know if my ripe bananas have gone bad?

    When baking with bananas the general rule is the riper the better! So your dark brown bananas as perfect to use. Bananas have gone bad (and shouldn't be used) if they have mould on them or a slimy liquid coming from them.

    Can I omit the chocolate chips?

    Absolutely! Our muffins are completely delicious with or without chocolate chips.

    Can I add nuts to this recipe?

    Yes you can! Chopped walnuts, macadamias and pecans are a few of my favourite additions.

    Storing

    Store muffins in an airtight container at room temperature. Muffins are best consumed within 1-2 days of baking.
    Note: do not store muffins in the fridge as this will dry them out.

    Freezing

    Freeze muffins in an airtight container for up to 3 months.

    • lemon zest - use only the yellow part of the lemon (not the white pith)
    • caster sugar - also known as superfine sugar

    Expert Tips

    Here are a few top tips for making our Thermomix Vanilla Custard...

    What can I use in place of vanilla bean paste?

    Vanilla bean paste is quite an expensive ingredient and while it gives a delicious flavour, it's not essential to this recipe. It can be replaced with vanilla extract or vanilla essence.

    Do I have to use full cream milk?

    Yes! Skim or light milk will not thicken as well.

    How can I make my custard extra thick?

    If you would like your custard to be very thick, cook it for an extra 2-3 minutes (but remember that it will thicken on cooling).

    How can I store my custard if I don't want to use it immediately?

    If you don't want to use your custard immediately, pour it into a bowl and place cling-wrap so that it touches the surface of the custard to stop it from forming a 'skin'.

    Storing

    Store any leftover custard in an airtight container in the fridge. Place a sheet of cling-wrap over the top (see tip above).

    A pumpkin and feta puff pastry tart.

    If you're looking for a light and flavoursome meal, this is it!

    Just like our Egg & Bacon Quiche and Vegetable Quiche, we know you're going to love this vegetarian Thermomix Pumpkin & Feta Tart too!

    Why You're Going To Love This Recipe

    What's not to love about a meat-free meal that ready in 45 minutes!

    • Combination of flavours - the creamy feta combined with soft roasted pumpkin, sweet caramelised onion and flaky pastry is simply the BEST!
    • Ready in under 1 hour - if you use puff pastry sheets, you'll have dinner on the table in just 45 minutes.

    The ingredients for a pumpkin and feta tart.
    • Pastry - choose between puff pastry sheets or make our olive oil pastry recipe
    • Roasted Pumpkin - perfect for using up leftovers after a roast dinner!
    • Feta - choose a soft feta (like Danish feta or a goats cheese)
    • Eggs - use large eggs (approximately 60g each)
    • Milk - use full cream milk or substitute with creamy for an ultra-creamy option (my personal fave)
    • Caramelised Onion - I like the Beerenberg brand, however, you can use any brand you like (or even homemade). This really lifts the flavour of the Thermomix Pumpkin & Feta Tart.

    • For a time-saving option, use puff pastry sheets.
    • If using puff pastry sheets, there's no need to blind bake.
    • Use leftover roast pumpkin OR cut pumpkin into 2-3 cm cubes, drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Bake in an oven preheated to 200 degrees celsius for 20 minutes or until the pumpkin has softened.

    FAQS

    If I make my own pastry, do I need to blind bake it?

    Yes! Homemade pastry needs to be blind-baked before adding the fillings.

    Can I substitute the pumpkin for sweet potato?

    Absolutely.

    Is milk or cream better?

    I personally prefer cream as it gives a richer, creamier texture. However, milk is also find to use (full cream milk is best).

    FAQs

    Can I make these crackers using an older model of the Thermomix?

    Yes! You can make this recipe using any of the Thermomix models.

    How can I make these crunchy?

    Thermomix Roasted Capsicum & Sun-Dried Tomato Dip

    March 7, 2016

    A bowl of capsicum dip with a cracker in it.

    Our Thermomix Roasted Capsicum & Sun-Dried Tomato Dip is the perfect addition to any cheese platter. Serve with crackers, deli meats, cheese and vegetable sticks.

    A cracker in a bowl of roasted capsicum dip.

    We go through a LOT of dip in our house and so instead of buying super expensive (and tiny!) ones from the supermarket, we make our own homemade dips in the Thermie! Not only is it a much cheaper option, it also makes much bigger batches!

    This Thermomix Roasted Capsicum & Sun-Dried Tomato Dip is super easy to make. The only time consuming bit is roasting the capsicum in the oven (but I usually try and do this while I've got the oven on cooking dinner anyway). If you're pressed for time, you can of course use store-bought roasted capsicums.

    Then it's simply a matter of popping all of the ingredients into the Thermomix, mixing them altogether, and then sitting down with a nice glass of wine, some crackers and cheese. Bliss!!

    Lets get started...!

    Why You're Going To Love This Recipe

    Who doesn't love a homemade flavoursome dip!?

    • No Additives - when you make your own dips in the Thermomix, you know EXACTLY what's going in to them. No additives or preservatives... just delicious fresh ingredients.
    • Budget-Friendly Option - making our Thermomix Roasted Capsicum & Sun-Dried Tomato Dip will save you a LOT of money compared to supermarket dips (plus you'll end up with a LOT more too!).
    • Makes A Big Batch - forget a teeny tiny store-bought dip that disappears in no time. Our recipe makes enough to fill a takeaway food container!
    • Versatile - don't have time to roast your own capsicum? No worries! Save time by using jarred roasted capsicums instead.

    What You Need

    Just a handful of ingredients are needed to make our Thermomix Roasted Capsicum & Sun-Dried Tomato Dip!

    Please scroll to the recipe card at the bottom of the post for ingredient quantities and the full detailed method.

    The ingredients for Thermomix Roasted Capsicum & Sun-Dried Tomato Dip.
    • Garlic - you can use minced fresh garlic or jarred minced garlic.. the choice is yours.
    • Chickpeas - drain the can of chickpeas but reserve the liquid (if you want your dip to be a little smoother, add some of the reserved liquid and mix through)
    • Tahini - the tahini (combined with the chickpeas) gives this dip a hummus-style flavour.
    • Lemon Juice - freshly squeezed or bottled lemon juice can be used.
    • Capsicum - roast your own capsicums or use jarred roast capsicum.
    • Sun-Dried Tomatoes - drain the excess liquid from the sun-dried tomatoes before using.
    • Olive Oil - use a good quality olive oil OR use the oil from the sun-dried tomatoes jar!
    • Sea Salt - for taste!

    Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.

    Expert Tips

    • Roast the capsicum in an oven preheated to 200 degrees celsius (fan-forced) until soft and slightly charred. Alternatively, use store-bought jarred roasted capsicum (a great time saving option!).

    • Reserve the drained chickpea liquid in case you'd like your dip so have a thinner texture.
    • Mix the ingredients longer for a smoother dip.

    Can I use leftover roasted capsicum?

    Absolutely! This dip is a great way to use up leftover roast capsicum.

    How do I roast the capsicum?

    Roast the capsicum in an oven preheated to 200 degrees celsius (fan-forced) until soft and slightly charred (approximately 20-30 minutes).

    • Roast the capsicum in an oven preheated to 200 degrees celsius (fan-forced) until soft and slightly charred. Alternatively, use store-bought jarred roasted capsicum (a great time saving option!).
    • Use olive oil OR use the oil from the jar of sun-dried tomatoes.
    • Reserve the drained chickpea liquid in case you'd like your dip so have a thinner texture.
    • Mix the ingredients longer for a smoother dip.
    • Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
    • This recipe is not suitable for freezing.

    Thermomix Arancini Balls

    February 29, 2016

    A close up of a pile of golden little arancini balls

    We all know how amazing Thermomix risotto is... and so it only makes sense to turn one of those delicious risottos into yummy little arancini balls.

    Arancini Balls 2

    When I make my arancini balls, I like to use a really basic risotto recipe. In fact, I virtually always use this one. I love that it's got a really simple lemony base, and because all of the yummy things get added to the top, you end up with the perfect risotto for arancini balls. If you're using a risotto that has lots of vegetables, chicken, bacon etc in it, just make sure that the chunks aren't too big or you'll have trouble getting your arancini balls to stick together properly. A really basic risotto is the perfect base for arancini balls.

    Arancini Balls 3

    It's also best to prepare your risotto the day before you need it, and leave it in the fridge overnight to firm up. You want a thick, firm risotto. Roll the risotto mixture around a small chunk of mozzarella cheese (which will give you that awesome stretchy cheesy filling), add some panko crumbs and bake in the oven until golden and crispy.

    I like to cook my arancini balls in a mini-muffin tin as it helps them to keep their shape. Mind you, because these arancini balls are oven-baked, they will slightly lose their perfect roundness (but I'd much prefer slightly odd-shaped balls than having to fry them!).

    Enjoy!

    FAQs

    Can I use any flavour of jelly?

    Yes absolutely! Mix and match with any of your preferred jelly flavours. We have used strawberry jelly in this recipe as that's what is traditionally used.

    Do I need to wait for the middle layer to set before I pour the jelly over?

    Yes you do! If you pour the jelly onto the middle layer before it's set, the jelly will seep into the creamy filling rather than sitting in a nice layer on top.

    How do you cut jelly slice?

    Place the jelly slice onto a chopping board. Use a large, flat, very sharp knife and press down firmly. Repeat until the entire slice has been cut into pieces.

    Thermomix Lemon Risotto

    February 22, 2016

    An overhead shot of fresh vegetables and prosciutto on top of a creamy risotto.

    Our fresh, creamy and zesty Thermomix Lemon Risotto is so simple to make and pairs perfectly with crunchy asparagus, grilled tomatoes and crispy prosciutto!

    An overhead shot of fresh vegetables and prosciutto on top of a creamy risotto.

    It's certainly no secret that the Thermomix makes the BEST, creamiest risottos!

    And as a busy mum, I very much appreciate a 'hands off' recipe that's ready in no time.

    Let the Thermomix do all the work and you'll end up with a lovely, creamy and zesty lemon risotto... all you have to do is lightly grill the asparagus, tomatoes and prosciutto to serve!

    Just like our chicken and mushroom risotto, seafood risotto and garlic prawn risotto, this lemon risotto is fast, fresh and simply delicious.

    Why You're Going To Love This Recipe

    This creamy Thermomix Lemon Risotto is sure to become a firm family favourite!

    • Quick & Easy - Have dinner on the table in less than 30 minutes... perfect for busy weeknights!!
    • Versatile - I like to top my risotto with grilled cherry tomatoes, asparagus and crispy prosciutto, however, it's also delicious served with salmon or prawns.
    • Suitable For All Thermomix Models - you can make our risotto in any model of the Thermomix.

    What You Need

    Our creamy Thermomix Lemon Risotto is made using basic pantry staples!

    Please scroll to the recipe card at the bottom of the post for ingredient quantities and the full detailed method.

    The ingredients for lemon risotto.
    • Parmesan cheese - buy a block of parmesan and grate it finely in the Thermomix.
    • Garlic - I use pre-minced garlic to save time, however, you can use cloves and mince them in the Thermomix if you prefer.
    • Butter and olive oil - this is the perfect combination when making risotto.
    • Arborio rice - ensure you choose arborio rice as it's what makes the risotto rich and creamy.
    • Liquid vegetable stock - use store-bought liquid vegetable stock or make your own using water and 2 teaspoon of vegetable stock powder (or 2 tbs homemade vegetable stock).
    • Lemon juice - add more or less to taste. I generally find that the juice from 1 lemon gives enough of a zesty flavour without being too overpowering.
    • To serve - I like to grill cherry tomatoes, asparagus and prosciutto and add it to the top of the risotto.

    Step By Step Instructions

    It couldn't be easier to make lemon risotto using your Thermomix!

    Top with grilled asparagus, cherry tomatoes, crispy prosciutto and the remaining parmesan cheese.

    Expert Tips

    Follow our top tips for the perfect Thermomix risotto!

    • ensure that you use arborio rice (this is the only type of rice suitable for risotto)
    • do not rinse the arborio rice before using - unlike other varieties of rice, you should not rinse arborio rice. Removing the starch will stop the risotto from becoming deliciously rich and creamy.
    • allow the risotto to rest in the ThermoServer for 10 minutes - this gives it enough time to thicken
    • serve with grilled asparagus, tomatoes and crispy prosciutto for a restaurant quality meal
    • use store-bought liquid chicken stock or use homemade chicken stock
    • for a vegetarian option, substitute the prosciutto for grilled salmon or prawns
    • store leftover risotto in the fridge for up to 3 days
    • if freezing risotto, allow it to cool completely and then place into an airtight container. Freeze for up to 3 months. Defrost and reheat in the microwave directly from frozen or allow to defrost in the fridge overnight and then reheat.

    NO! Unlike other varieties of rice, arborio rice should NOT be rinsed! Rinsing the rice would remove the starch and prevent the risotto from becoming rich and creamy.

    Can I freeze leftover risotto?

    Yes! Leftover risotto can be frozen for up to 3 months.
    Please note: the grilled tomatoes, asparagus and prosciutto are not suitable for freezing.

    Notes

    RECIPE NOTES & TIPS
    • ensure that you use arborio rice (this is the only type of rice suitable for risotto)
    • do not rinse the arborio rice before using - unlike other varieties of rice, you should not rinse arborio rice. Removing the starch will stop the risotto from becoming deliciously rich and creamy.
    • allow the risotto to rest in the ThermoServer for 10 minutes - this gives it enough time to thicken
    • serve with grilled asparagus, tomatoes and crispy prosciutto for a restaurant quality meal
    • use store-bought liquid chicken stock or use homemade chicken stock
    • for a vegetarian option, substitute the prosciutto for grilled salmon or prawns
    • store leftover risotto in the fridge for up to 3 days
    • if freezing risotto, allow it to cool completely and then place into an airtight container. Freeze for up to 3 months. Defrost and reheat in the microwave directly from frozen or allow to defrost in the fridge overnight and then reheat.

    FAQs

    What is the Reverse function?

    When mixing the topping, it's important to use the Reverse function so that the blades mix rather than chop. If you don't use Reverse, the passionfruit seeds will be chopped into tiny pieces!

    Can I make this in an older version of the Thermomix?

    Yes! This recipe is suitable for all of the models of the Thermomix.

    How many passionfruit will I need if using fresh passionfruit?

    Approximately 3, however, this is dependent on how how pulp each passionfruit contains.

    Please scroll to the recipe card at the bottom of the post for ingredient quantities and the full detailed method.

    The ingredients for Thermomix Spinach, Sun-Dried Tomato & Feta Scrolls.
    • Flour - self raising flour is used in our Thermomix Spinach, Sun-Dried Tomato & Feta Scrolls recipe as it's the raising agent (and avoids the need for yeast).
    • Salt - sea salt or regular cooking salt
    • Butter - salted or unsalted

    • Chutney - use any type of chutney you like. We generally use a classic tomato chutney.
    • Cheese - grated cheddar or tasty cheese.
    • Feta - I recommend using a soft feta, like a Danish feta as it crumbles easily.

    • Sun-Dried Tomatoes - use strips of sundried tomatoes or cut whole sundried tomatoes into smaller people.

    Thermomix Chicken and Zucchini Nuggets

    Crunchy chicken and zucchini nuggets in a pile with a bowl of relish beside.

    I don't know about you, but I just can't help myself when it comes to eating waaaay too much this time of year!  In between all of the Christmas parties, BBQ's and catching up with friends, there is always so much yummy food on offer and I always seem to overindulge.   These Thermomix Chicken and Zucchini Nuggets are the perfect 'lighter' party food (or easy dinner!) option and the kids won't even realise that they have veggies in them!

    Thermomix Chicken and Zucchini Nuggets

    These Chicken and Zucchini Nuggets are really simple to make and best of all you can make them in advance and then pop them into the freezer until you need them.  They are a great alternative to 'traditional' chicken nuggets and my boys just love gobbling down a few of their 'special nuggets'!

    Equipment

    • Thermomix
    • Oven

    Ingredients

    • 500 g of chicken breast mince
    • 1 zucchini
    • ½ teaspoon of mild paprika (optional)
    • ½ cup of grated parmesan cheese
    • ½ cup of breadcrumbs
    • 1 tablespoon of fresh parsley
    • ½ cup of very finely grated parmesan cheese - extra
    • Salt and pepper

    Instructions

    • Preheat oven to 190 degrees celsius and chop the parsley finely and place it along with the bread crumbs and ½ cup of finely grated parmesan cheese into a small bowl and set aside until needed.
    • Place the zucchini into your Thermomix bowl and blitz on Turbo until finely grated - you may need to scrape down the sides of the bowl.
    • Transfer the grated zucchini into a strainer and squeeze out any excess liquid.
    • Add the chicken mince, zucchini, paprika, parmesan cheese and a sprinkle of salt and pepper into your Thermomix bowl and mix on Reverse Speed 5 for 15 seconds or until completely combined.
    • Use a metal spoon to scoop the chicken mixture and roll into balls with your hands.
    • Place the chicken balls into the bowl with the breadcrumb mixture and lightly toss to cover the entire ball.
    • Place the coated chicken balls onto a lined baking tray and using the palm of your hand, slightly flatten the ball before using the knuckle of your thumb to indent the side – giving you the shape of a ‘traditional’ chicken nugget. Repeat this process until all the chicken mixture has been used.
    • Place the baking tray into the oven and cook for 12 - 15 minutes or until your Chicken and Zucchini Nuggets are golden brown and cooked through when tested.
    • Please note your cooking time will vary depending on the size of your Chicken and Zucchini Nuggets.

    FAQs

    Where can I buy acai powder?

    You can buy acai powder from the health food section of any major supermarket or from any health food store. I use Nature's Way brand available at Coles.

    Can I make different flavour acai bowls?

    Absolutely! You can easily vary the types of frozen berries you use to make different flavours.

    In your photos, the acai bowl mixture looks like it's frozen. Is this how it should be?

    When you follow the recipe below, your acai bowl will have the texture of a smoothie. I followed the recipe exactly, but I froze my acai bowl for an hour or so before I took the photos (hence why it looks frozen!). I would allow this to sit at room temp for a few more minutes before serving.

    What You Need

    Just 5 Ingredients! How easy is that!?

    Note: Please scroll to the recipe card at the bottom of the post for ingredient quantities and the full method.

    The ingredients for caramel fudge.
    • Butter - you can use either salted or unsalted butter for this recipe. Margarine is not suitable.
    • Sweetened Condensed Milk - it's important to use full fat sweetened condensed milk (not skim or light) as this helps to set the fudge firm. I find that Nestle brand also sets firmer than home brand versions.
    • Golden Syrup - a sweet and sticky liquid that helps to give the fudge it's delicious caramel flvaour.
    • Brown Sugar - choose either regular brown sugar or dark brown sugar for this recipe. I generally use regular brown sugar.
    • White Chocolate - choose white baking chocolate or chocolate melts for the best results.

    Step 5 - Chill

    Chill the fudge in the fridge for 6 hours or overnight.

    Remove from the fridge and cut into slices.

    FAQ & Expert Tips

    Keep the MC (measuring cup) OFF

    When heating and cooking the fudge, it's important to keep the MC off. This stops the majority of the condensation from dripping back onto the fudge.

    Use full fat sweetened condensed milk

    It's important to use full fat sweetened condensed milk (not light or skim) as it sets firmer.

    Storing

    Store the caramel fudge in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 weeks.
    Place sheets of baking paper between each layer.

    Freezing

    It's possible to freeze fudge in an airtight container for up to 2 months, however the texture and flavour may change. For best results, keep the fudge in the fridge and consume within 2-3 weeks.
