Nutty Fudge



I'm just assuming that by now everyone is sick of healthy eating and green shakes and kale soup.

Hello, fudge.

Fudge is really tricky. And I am not very good at making fudge. I’ve done this recipe a few times now, and it works about half the time, which is a better win rate than I had before! Sometimes it goes a little soft, but a few hours in the fridge hardens it up beautifully. And the softer is it, the better the toppings stay on top initially. I wouldn’t discourage anyone from making fudge, you just have to keep at it. And really, when it doesn’t go quite right, if it’s a little soft, or too crumbly.. It’s still delicious.



This actually makes excellent gifts: delicious, home made, toppings are infinitely customisable, and keeps for 2-3 weeks if stored in Tupperware or a zip lock bag! Dream.
