the fancy type that involves caramelizing and knowing the temperature of things.
i tried doing that...once.
let's just say, i do better with a simpler recipe...
ingredients:
18 oz chocolate chips (any flavor)
14 oz (1 can) sweetened condensed milk
1 Tbsp butter
1 splash of vanilla
*important: do NOT add extra chocolate, even 2 oz, or it'll get weird*
action plan:
1. mix all ingredients in a saucepan on low heat until melted (stir constantly)
(it won't be liquidy, just smooth-ish)
(it won't be liquidy, just smooth-ish)
2. put wax paper in a casserole dish
3. pour the melted mixture onto the wax paper & spread it out
4. put it in the fridge
5. wait a few hours or overnight
6. remove from wax paper & cut it up
7. then, you stuff.
behold, the fudge:
the flavors: peanut butter, dark, butterscotch, white and regular.
i think it weighs about 10 lbs and is about 50 girth units.
in other news, i've been on a sugar high for the past 14 hours.
and before that i took excedrin migraine after 3 days of a gnarly headache.
and basically i felt like i was on speed.
also i watched 4 episodes of arrested development and whhhere have i been,
katilda
a sugar high + arrested development (my favorite comedey series ever, besides "the IT crowd") sounds like one hell of a good time. :)
ReplyDeleteOne time I ate too much fudge, got sick, and vowed to never eat fudge again. That vow lasted about a week.
ReplyDeleteThere are maybe two or three TV shows that are better than Arrested Development. Enjoy.
