Notes
RECIPE NOTES & TIPSIngredients Info:
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.
More Recipe Tips: Keep the measuring cup (MC) 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.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.
