Ok. I will walk to the shops tomorrow morn: that'll make me feel better about eating the WHOLE lot when I make it.

Just found this thread - perfect timing!

Has anyone NOT eaten it in the week they made it? How long does it keep if you don't eat it?

*whistles innocently* Just made some dairy free fudge with candy canes crumbled and swirled through.....

[Rivlas]

I bought 3 cans condensed milk only to find when I got home 2 were skim. Will this make any difference to the fudge?

[jaspen]

i've used skim in other things rivlas with little difference - maybe not so rich would be the only thing I could think.

I tried to cheat and melted the choc with the milk and butter in the microwave (I usually do this if something requires melted chocolate with success) - I don't know that it got enough heat to the condensed milk though. I didn't keep the mixture going until it was really thin for fear of burning the chocolate so although it has the texture of fudge it really just tastes like the choc with roast almonds that I used, doesn't have the extra sweetness of fudge - is this due to not long enough on heat so to speak do you think or is the apparent taste right and I was just expecting more of the condensed milk to come through in the flavour but it doesn't due to the quantity of chocolate.

still liked the taste of what i made just wondering whether I got it right or not by trying to sidestep the saucepan on the stove.

I'm making some tonight.

I want to make caramel fudge any ideas of what i could add instead of chocolate??
