Slow Cooker Chocolate Fudge - A Successful Attempt

Today was my second attempt at slow cooker fudge. Although my first batch was nice, the texture just wasn't right. It didn't feel like proper fudge and the texture was quite sticky. I love a nice crumbly fudge so made myself a mission to get it to the right texture.

This time I used the same recipe but just took the SC pot out of the base at the end and beat the fudge for 10 minutes. I'm not going to lie, it did feel like my arm was going to fall off. But the difference it made to the texture was unbelievable! The fudge had almost set after 10 minutes of beating but wasn't sticky at all. Once it was set, it had that perfect crumbly fudge texture.

This recipe for a thumbs up from everyone who tried it. I'll definitely be making it again and experimenting with some new flavours.

Ingredients:

1 tin condensed milk
200g milk chocolate
200g white chocolate
1 tbsp butter
1 tbsp vanilla extract

Method:

1. Break up the chocolate and put all of the ingredients in to slow cooker.
2. Heat on high for 1hr 30 mins with the lid off. The fudge needs stirring every 10-15 minutes.
3. After 1hr30, take the SC pot out of the base and beat the fudge with a spoon or electric whisk for 10 minutes
4. Pour into a lined tray and leave to cool completely before putting into the fridge.
5. The fudge will keep in an airtight container for 3 weeks in the fridge or 2 weeks at room temperature.
