Quickfudge Recipes

QUICK FUDGE

Steps:

• Stir together the first six ingredients over medium heat until thickened.
• Remove from heat.
• Quickly add the butter, peanut butter, and vanilla.
• Pour into a buttered pie pan or other similar size pan.
• This will set pretty quick because of the corn starch.

MICROWAVE FUDGE

Steps:

• Microwave 12 ounces semisweet chocolate chips and a 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk, 5 minutes. Stir vigorously, then add 1 1/2 cups chopped nuts and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Spread in an 8-inch-square pan lined with buttered parchment paper. Refrigerate, then cut into squares.

SWEET AND SALTY FUDGE

Steps:

• Line an 8-inch square baking pan with aluminum foil. Coat the foil with cooking spray.
• In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk. Cook, stirring, until melted and smooth, 6 to 8 minutes. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking pan and spread to even out the surface. Top with spoonfuls of the peanut butter. Using a skewer or butter knife, swirl the peanut butter into the chocolate mixture. Sprinkle over the crushed chips and pretzels. Let the fudge cool for 30 minutes on the counter, then lightly cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
• Lift the foil out of the pan and peel it from the fudge. Cut into small squares to serve.

CONDENSED MILK FUDGE

Steps:

• Microwave chocolate and milk in large microwaveable bowl on high 2-3 minutes, or until chocolate is almost melted, stirring half way through heating time.
• Stir in Vanilla and Walnuts.
• Spread in greased 8-inch square pan.
• Refrigerate until cool.
• Cut into squares.

FUDGE

Steps:

• Place chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and butter or margarine in large microwaveable bowl. Zap in microwave on medium until chips are melted, about 3-5 minute, stirring once or twice during cooking. Stir in nuts, if desired.
• Pour into well-greased 8x8-inch glass baking dish. Refrigerate until set.

CLASSIC FUDGE

Steps:

• Butter and line a 20cm square cake tin with baking parchment. Put the butter, condensed milk, sugar and milk in a large saucepan over a low heat. Stir continuously until the sugar dissolves.
• Increase the heat and bring to the boil. Bubble for 10 mins, stirring all the time until the mixture reaches 115C on a sugar or probe thermometer. Remove from the heat and leave to cool to 110C. Add the vanilla, then beat in a stand mixer or with an electric hand whisk until it cools to 60C. This will help break up any large sugar crystals. The fudge should be thick and matte-looking.
• Spoon the fudge into the prepared tin and press down with a spoon to smooth the surface. Leave to set, then cut into squares. Will keep for up to three weeks in an airtight container.
