Fudge recipe with condensed milk!

[lostgirl66]

Argh! I have some condensed milk and I remember years ago making fudge with it and cocoa powder, it was literally just condensed milk in a pan, low heat, with cocoa powder and possibly butter but don't remember that too well and just stif til it's thick then cool and make into balls covered in ground almonds or similar!

I can't find the recipe anywhere now! I don't know how much cocoa to put in or even if I've dreamt it at this point!! Please some body help!

there are loads of recipes online. I lurve fudge made like this but have to buy it as seeing the ingredients guilts me out...

Thanks everyone

None of those are the ones I've made before, they had no chocolate or sugar in them I'm sure! I'm beginning to think I've imagined it now!

I've just been to the shop too and could have bought some more things if I'd just checked before!

I think I'm just going to cobble something together with what I've got and see how it tastes

I only want some because I saw the episode of friends the other day where Monica was making holiday candy for all the neighbours! It reminded me of them and I've wanted them ever since! I'm so suggestible!

Annoyingly I saw the recipe on Instagram the other day and of course I can't find it again

Hey,
I use a tin of condensed milk and chocolate. melt down 400g of choc - we like a mix of milk and dark, and then tip the can of condensed milk into the milk and mix like hell. It becomes pretty stiff quite quick so I then transfer into whatever you are using (i use loaf tin liners in a lasagne dish!) leave to set and cut.

It's lovely! I bought some little tupperwares from home bargains and tend to gift in those :)

The carnation milk one is the best.

2lb sugar
100g butter
300ml evaporated milk (ie the one that ISN'T carnation)
300ml milk
flavouring - melted chocolate and orange drops; vanilla; lemon drops and tiny pieces of meringue - go mad!

but DON'T dye it blue, as my friend and I did once. that was most off-putting.

Maybe I've got the wrong 'milk' thing? why didn't I bloody check it before I went to the shop!!

Is this the wrong milky thing so you think then?

Would this work without the biscuits?

Haven't tried that one.

I use the slow cooker one (recipe was going round FB a while back). It's not fudge fudge, but it's incredibly yummy.

I THINK it has to be evaporated, not condensed. But I'm fairly shit at cooking, so I could be wrong. I just remember trying it with carnation once and it did not end well!

I use this one. Sometimes, I bash up a pack of rich tea biscuits, mix that through the fudge mixture, then once it's set a bit, put a layer of chocolate on top. Known as crunch in our house, and adored by all.

Yes time that looks about right! Just before I read your reply though I just shoved a loaf of cocoa power and condensed milk in a pan, definitely more that the recipe said! let see how that turns out!!

This is the ingredients I use, great fudge

I have used condensed milk, definitely. It has to get hotter than you ever thought imaginable. Or you can just microwave it!!

is condensed milk different to evporated milk?

Yes, it's much thicker and sweeter.

Google brigadeiros - cocoa, condensed milk and butter.
