Chocolate And Hazelnut Fudge

This is another Christmas favourite.

Once made, I have to hide it at the back of the refrigerator or there would be none left come Christmas Day.

I would be the offender. It is impossibel to resist.

Ingredients:

450 gm milk chocolate melts
1 x 400 gm tin light condensed milk
50 gm butter (not margarine)
2 teaspoons vanilla essence
150 gm roughly chopped hazelnuts, some left whole

 

Method:

Place choc melts, condensed milk, butter and vanilla in a glass bowl and microwave at 50% power for approximately 5 minutes, stirring every minute.

When melted together add the hazelnuts and stir well.

Pour into a greased, paper-lined 20 cm square tin. Refrigerate until firm.

Cut into small pieces using a hot knife.

Makes about 40 pieces.

 

Notes:

This recipe is very rich so only cut it into very small pieces.

If your budget doesn't stretch to hazelnuts then roasted unsalted peanuts would be a nice alternative. Otherwise you can omit the nuts altogether.
