Ingredients:
- 200g Cooking chocolate
- 150g Milkmaid (sweetened condensed milk)
- 50g Cashews (optional)
Instructions:
- Begin by greasing a 5×5 inch tray with a layer of butter, ensuring all sides are coated. Line the tray with parchment or oil paper for easy removal of the fudge.
- Take the cooking chocolate and carefully chop it into small pieces. Utilize the double boil method to melt the chocolate; set up a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water, ensuring the bowl doesn’t touch the water directly. Melt the chocolate pieces in the bowl, stirring occasionally until smooth and velvety.
- Once the chocolate has melted completely, introduce the milkmaid (sweetened condensed milk) into the mixture. Stir thoroughly to create a homogeneous blend of rich chocolate and creamy milk.
- If desired, incorporate the cashews into the mixture. The cashews can provide a delightful crunch and extra texture to the fudge.
- Transfer the chocolate mixture into the prepared tray. Spread and flatten the mixture evenly to achieve a consistent thickness throughout. Place the tray in the refrigerator to set for a duration of 3-4 hours, or preferably overnight, allowing the fudge to solidify and develop its delectable flavors.
- After the recommended chilling time has elapsed, retrieve the tray from the refrigerator. Carefully cut the chilled fudge into desirable pieces, considering your preferred serving size.
- To serve, pair the luscious chocolate fudge with a cup of unsweetened coffee or an aromatic infusion. The contrasting flavors will create a delightful taste experience.
Storage:
- Place the fudge pieces in an airtight container, ensuring a tight seal to prevent moisture and odors from affecting the fudge’s quality.
- Store the container in the refrigerator to maintain the fudge’s freshness and texture for up to 4 weeks.
