Made this recipe in heart shaped molds for our daughter's wedding favours. They were then wrapped in silver paper and placed inside burgundy organza bags. They were very well received. Thought this might be useful for Christmas presents or just for gifting. It makes a lot of fudge for just one tin of condensed milk which is rather expensive here. Enjoy.


FOOLPROOF FUDGE
1 x 385g tin condensed milk
1 condensed milk tin measure of water or fresh milk
45 ml (3 Tbsps) syrup
125g butter
1,2 kg (6 cups) sugar
45 ml (3 Tbsps) flour
2 ml salt
2 ml cream of tartar
10 ml vanilla essence
1. Heat together the condensed milk, water or milk, syrup and butter in a large pot.
2. Combine the sugar, flour, salt and cream of tartar and add to melted mixture.
3. Stir over a low heat until the sugar has dissolved and then cook slowly for about 40-50 minutes, stirring occasionally. It will thicken and form big soft bubbles and start to crystallise on the sides of the pot.
4. Add the vanilla essence.
5. Cool slightly then beat with a wooden spoon until creamy.
6. Quickly pour into a greased tin and cut into squares before totally set.

A recipe that says it for 29gifts

I have a little recipe that isn't hard to make
It's one that you must always start as soon as you awake.
Take a great big mixing bowl and fill it with a smile.
Mix half a cup of kindness with good deeds to last a while.
Add a pinch of work and play, some thoughtfulness and care
Then serve it out with thankfulness to people everywhere.

Got the idea after reading a post from Melaniel.
