Ingredients
Fudge Base
- 3 Cups Brown Sugar, packed (600 grams)
- 175 grams Butter, diced
- 1 Tin Sweetened Condensed Milk (395 grams)
Chocolate
- 375 grams White Chocolate Melts or Chocolate Pieces
Instructions
- Prepare the Tin: Line a large slice tin (at least 25cm by 25cm) with baking paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking and protect the tin from knife marks. Using a ceramic or glass dish is recommended for easier removal.
- Combine Ingredients: In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the brown sugar, diced butter, and sweetened condensed milk evenly.
- Microwave Mixture: Microwave on 50% power for 10 minutes, stirring every 2-3 minutes to prevent burning and encourage even melting. Near the end, check the mixture on the back of a spoon; if sugar crystals remain, microwave for an additional minute or until mostly dissolved.
- Add White Chocolate: Remove from the microwave and immediately stir in the white chocolate pieces until fully melted and the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Set the Fudge: Pour the mixture into the prepared slice tin, spreading evenly. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight to set firm.
- Slice and Serve: Once set, remove the fudge from the tin and slice into bite-sized pieces. Store leftovers in the fridge to maintain freshness.
- Enjoy: Serve chilled as a rich and indulgent treat.
Notes
- Ensure your microwave-safe bowl is large enough to prevent spills during stirring.
- Use 50% microwave power to avoid burning the sugar and milk mixture.
- For easier slicing, use a ceramic or glass dish instead of metal.
- Store fudge in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
- For variety, try adding nuts or a pinch of sea salt on top before setting.
