Homemade Fudge Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 4 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 cup water
  • 250g margarine
  • 1 can condensed milk

Instructions:

  1. In a large saucepan, melt the margarine, sugar, and water over low heat.
  2. Once the margarine has fully melted, allow the mixture to come to a boil for 6 minutes without stirring.
  3. After boiling, add the condensed milk and stir continuously over low heat until the mixture reaches a caramel color.
  4. Pour the fudge into a buttered baking sheet.
  5. While it’s still warm, cut it into squares.

The fudge will take about 20–25 minutes to boil. To check if it’s ready, drop a small amount into cold water – it should set if done.

Tips for Perfect Fudge:

  • Toffee Texture: If you prefer a toffee-like fudge, return it to the pot with ½ cup water. Let it boil for around 20 minutes, stirring constantly.
  • Fixing Crumbly or Overcooked Fudge: Return it to the pot with 1 cup of water. Once melted and boiling, cook for 20 minutes, stirring throughout.
  • Vanilla Flavor: For added flavor, mix in 5 ml of vanilla essence right before pouring the fudge into your pan.
  • Cutting Tips: To achieve even squares, use a flat plank the width of a ruler as a guide over the pan. For larger pieces, use a wider guide.
