Step 1

Place all the ingredients in a pot and heat up over low heat. Stir to help melt the ingredients and combine them. The mixture will start developing a smooth and creamy texture.

Step 2

Bring to a soft boil and simmer for 10 minutes. Stir continuously so it doesn't burn. Scrape the bottom of the pot to prevent the mixture from sticking to it.

Step 3

If you are using a thermometer, the fudge should reach about 240-240ºF/115-120ºC. If you don't have a thermometer, spoon a small portion of the mixture over a bowl with ice water. You should be able to form a small ball that doesn't stick to your hands.

Step 4

Remove from the heat and let it cool down for a few minutes. and whisk until it's thick. Chef's Tip: If you're using any other flavors or add-ins, it's best to add them now, before whisking.

Step 5

Whisk the fudge until it's thick. Whisking it will allow it to cool down and thicken. Keep in mind that this might take up to 10 minutes - it should almost begin to set and will also lose its shine. The longer you whisk it, the more crumbly the fudge will be at the end.

Step 6

Pour the mixture into a tray lined with parchment paper (8 inches/20 cm) and spread evenly. Then cover it with more parchment paper and let it cold down to room temperature before placing it in the fridge to chill and firm up.

Step 7

Once the fudge is set, you can cut it into squares. I cut them into 1-1.5 inch cubes but you can cut them into your preferred size.

Step 8

Keep the fudge stored in an airtight container.You can keep it at room temperature for up to about 2 weeks or in the refrigerator for about 3 weeks.You can also freeze the fudge cubes - wrap each piece individually and then store them in an airtight container in the freezer for about 2 months. To thaw, just put it in the refrigerator.
