Nigella chocolate and pistachio fudge - can I use milk chocolate?

[pinkspottywellies]

I thought I did last year but having already cocked up a batch of fudge and some coconut ice in the last two days I don't want to screw up again!

TIA

I tried it once with milk choc. Very sickly. Theres so much sugar in there already its better to use the really bitter stuff. I aslo used pistachios in their shells - took bloddy ageg to shell them and pick all the brown dusty stuff off! Good luck...

bloody ages, I mean.

Arse. Thanks.

I guess I'll just have to eat the Daisy Milk and get some dark chocolate tomorrow

Has someone got the whole receipe for this please?

thank you

350g plain chocolate
397g can of condensed milk
30 g of butter
pinch salt

Melt all the above together gently.

Add 150g pistachio nuts.

Pour into a tin and refrigerate.

You can find it on bbc food website.

I made these for presents last year. They were delicious. I used a mix of green and blacks milk and plain. Their milk is a bit darker than usual though.

Thank you thank you X

i used a combo of milk and plain choc, and pecans instead of pistachios, just because I didn't have pistachios in the cupboard. Tasted fine to me.
