Home Sweet Home Bakealong 59: Vanilla Fudge
I’ve tried this twice and both times it came out more like a crumbly toffee but both times it tasted great anyway (I say that – I’ve had a nibble of each, it’s a bit sweet for me). I am definitely going to have to invest in a sugar thermometer. The second time I made it using skimmed milk because that was all we had. It needed more sugar to make it set but the Mr reckons it was the best of the two attempts. I was surprised it was made with milk rather than cream.
