Chocolate Fudge Squares

The weather is getting colder, and everyone is starting to wrap up and turn up the heating. Times like these call for comfort food- and what isn't more perfect than a little bite of heaven....fudge! Highly calorific, but oh sooooo heavenly!

Ingredients:

225g digestives

225g butter

 225g caster sugar

397g condensed milk tin

cooking chocolate 

Equipment:

saucepan

square tin

rolling pin

wooden spoon

freezer bag (or teatowel)

Step 1:

Weigh out 225g of butter and sugar and melt them in a pan on a medium heat. Continuously stir until it has all melted, and then add the condensed milk.

    Step 2:

Weigh out the digestive biscuits and put them in a freezer bag. Tie a knot in the bag and smash the biscuits into small crumbs.

  

Step 3:

Add the digestives to the pan and stir. When the ingredients are thoroughly mixed take the pan off the heat and pour into the tin. Use a knife to smooth over the top.

  Step 4:

Place the tin into the fridge to cool. Placing it ontop of a cooling rack or something similar will help cool down the base of the tin.

Step 5: 

Snap the chocolate into squares and place onto a plate over boiling water in a pan. Stir gently and remove from the heat once it has all melted.

Step 6:

Take the fudge out of the fridge and pour the chocolate over it. Then smooth it over with a knife. Then place it back into the fridge for about 3 hours until the chocolate has hardened. 

Step 7:

Take the fudge out of the fridge and, with a sharp knife, carefully cut even squares. You may need a fish slice to get them out as it is a little tricky!

 Enjoy! Hope you've enjoyed this post!
