These colorful little gems caught my eye as I was scrolling thru Style At Home. What are they?! Cake, brownie, cookie?
Fudge. Milk fudge, to be exact and I can’t wait to try this recipe! Think how fun – you can color coordinate to your dessert table! Here’s the how-to:
Ingredients
2 (14 oz.) cans condensed milk
1 (12 oz.) can evaporated goat’s or cow’s milk
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
Directions
1 Lightly grease a 9 by 9-inch square pan. Line the pan with a piece of parchment paper or aluminum foil, leaving about a 1-inch overhang on all sides.
2 Combine the condensed milk, evaporated milk, butter, vanilla, and salt in a saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring continuously with a wooden spoon or heatproof spatula, until the mixture has thickened and starts pulling away from the sides of the pan, 20 to 30 minutes. When ready, it will slide easily out of the pan when tilted.
3 Pour into the prepared pan and allow to set, about 2 hours. Cut into rectangles or desired shapes.
Double the flavour
You can mix and match flavors as you like, and you can do it quite simply. Pour half of the mixture into the prepared pan, stir another flavor—such as coffee extract or any kind of flavored oil with a few drops of food coloring—into the other half, then pour that on top. Alternatively, you can make two separate flavors and make half a batch of each.
Variations
Chocolate
Add 6 tablespoons unsweetened natural cocoa powder (preferably Dutch processed) along with the other ingredients.
Lime
Replace the vanilla with 1 teaspoon grated lime zest and add 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice and a few drops of green food coloring (if desired) once the mixture has been removed from the heat, making sure you add them slowly and stir well so it doesn’t separate.
Coffee
Add 2 teaspoons coffee extract along with the other ingredients.
Coconut
Replace the evaporated milk with the same size can of coconut milk.
Tequila
Add 1 tablespoon white or reposado tequila once the mixture has been removed from the heat, making sure you add it slowly and stir well so it doesn’t separate.

yes, please. :) hope y'all are enjoying football season! we have gone to our first TX high school football game here in Flour Bluff, and it was awesome!
ReplyDeleteThose look fun. Please let us know when you make them. I'd love to see and hear how they turn out.
ReplyDeleteJust found your cooking blog, looked around and probably will have to try some of these delicious looking ideas! I cook, don't particularly like to, never have, as my momma would still tell you! My children, and my husband, tell me I am a good cook. I do it for them. If it was just me here, I would just live on salad and baked potato! But, here's the real kicker . . . I love cookbooks! Love to read them, and have a lot of them. Now, how's that for someone that doesn't like to cook! :) I'd rather be playing football with my favorite teams!!
