This recipe is based on the one found here, and will be updated after tasting the results.

Note: Like making jam, the boiling mixture will bubble furiously, use a large pot.

Ingredients

• oil, for greasing
• 300ml semi-skimmed milk
• 350g caster sugar
• 100g salted butter
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

Method

Grease 18cm square baking dish to store the fudge as it sets.

Warm milk, butter and sugar in a tall pot to dissolve the sugar.

Once dissolved, bring to a rolling boil for 15-20 minutes, stirring continuously. The mixture should end up looking reduced and slightly more viscous.

Allow to cool slightly (5 minutes). Add the vanilla then beat until it becomes thick and glossy.

Pour into the greased dish and allow to cool completely, do not cool in the fridge.

Chop into cubes and enjoy.
