Cake Batter Fudge

I love fudge but stay away from the recipes where you have to use a candy thermometer, I like the easy recipes! One of these days I will try fudge making that way, once I get around to actually buying a candy thermometer. For now, here is a simple recipe I first saw on Pinterest and then on one of those Pinterest fail sites. I love cake batter anything, so had to try this recipe out. I was worried it would come out looking more like the failed version, which they described as "meat coloured fudge", gross! I learned from their failure to add the sprinkles in at the last minute with minimal mixing in, which the original recipe does mention as well, so very important step. Use whatever cake mix you can find in the shops, I want to try out a chocolate version! This fudge is amazingly yummy!! It is very sweet and initially I thought one square was enough for a little treat but I found myself going back for more and more. Try out this super easy and yummy recipe: Baked from a Box: Cake Batter Fudge






Thank Fudge It's Friday!


So, I was watching Lorraine Pascale's show 'Home Cooking Made Easy' and she was making some fudge. I have been wanting to make fudge after seeing some other blogger's post about it but thought it might be too hard. After watching Lorraine make it, I knew I could do it as she made it look so easy. Well, it was incredibly easy to make and so delicious and creamy chocolatey goodness. Everyone loved it!! I will be making this one again and maybe try out different flavours! Happy Friday!


Recipe:Chocolate Marshmallow Brown Sugar Fudge
Courtesy of Lorraine Pascale
Ingredients:
vegetable oil, for greasing
70g butter
300g soft light brown sugar
125g evaporated milk
225g marshmallows
300g milk chocolate, chopped
75g dark chocolate (at least 60% cocoa solids), chopped

Steps:
  1. GREASE a 8in square cake tin with vegetable oil, then line with greaseproof paper.
  2. PUT the butter, sugar and milk in a pan over a low heat and melt gently. Once the sugar has dissolved, add the marshmallows and turn up the heat. Boil the fudge for 5 minutes.
  3. TAKE the pan off the heat and add the chopped chocolate. Leave for one minute, then stir the mixture together until everything is melted.
  4. POUR the mixture into the prepared tin and leave to set for a couple of hours. Once set, remove from the tin and cut into bite size squares.
