Ingredients

Caramel fudge bites
  • 395 gram can sweetened condensed milk
  • 125 gram butter, chopped
  • 1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoon glucose syrup
  • 1/4 cup golden syrup
  • 180 gram white cooking chocolate, finely chopped

Method

Caramel fudge bites
  • 1
    Grease and line a 20cm (base measurement), square cake pan with baking paper, extending paper at 2 opposite sides for handles.
  • 2
    Place condensed milk, butter, brown sugar, glucose and golden syrup into a medium saucepan. Stir over low heat without boiling for 6-8 minutes or until sugar has dissolved (mixture wm become glossy).
  • 3
    Increase heat; bring to a simmer. Cook and stir for 6-8 minutes or until mixture thickens and turns a rich brown colour (mixture will come away from side of pan). Remove pan from heat; stir in chocolate until melted.
  • 4
    Working quickly, spread fudge in prepared pan; smooth surface. Cool for 30 minutes. Chill for 2-3 hours or until firm. Remove fudge from pan; cut into 20 pieces to serve.

Notes

To prevent mixture sticking and scorching, use a heavy-based saucepan and stir constantly. Work quickly once chocolate is added, as fudge will set quickly. Don't overcook; caramel may cause chocolate to seize. If so, start again.
