Easy christmas present to make
Many will know that I'm not that crafty but on Sunday after some tidying so the tree could go up , I decided to make some fudge.
Luckily for me I'd been sent a recipe from the lovely people at Tate& Lyle people so I knew it would be great
The fudge is of the no bake variety which is great as we don't have a sugar thermometer in the house. If you had small Christmas shape cutters you could cut them into any shape but we only had a square cutter.
Ingredients:
Luckily for me I'd been sent a recipe from the lovely people at Tate& Lyle people so I knew it would be great
Ingredients:
- 75g unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 4 tbsp. condensed milk
- ½ tsp. vanilla extract
- 400g Tate & Lyle Fairtrade Icing Cane Sugar, sifted, plus extra
- 25g cocoa powder
How to make this recipe
- Put the butter, condensed milk and vanilla extract into a bowl and beat together until smooth. Sift the Tate & Lyle Icing Sugar and cocoa together, then gradually mix into the butter mixture. Eventually, you will have to use your hands and work the mixture well until it comes together into a firm ball.
- Lightly dust the work surface with a little Tate & Lyle Icing Sugar, place the fudge ball onto the surface and roll evenly about 1Cm (½”) thick.
- Use Christmas novelty cutters and cut out shapes, transfer to a flat tray lined with parchment paper. Alternatively, roll into a square and cut into small squares. Gather up the trimmings and continue to cut out shapes.
- Leave to dry overnight before serving, or pack into pretty boxes, if you want to give them as a gift.
