Note 5 - Sprinkles: bright and colourful! These are great to add some vibrant pops of colour to the otherwise plain white vanilla fudge.We only need to use a small amount of this. Note 4 - Vanilla extract: this is how we get the vanilla flavor in the fudge.Note 3 - Butter: I like to roughly chop the butter into small pieces as I find it is then even more evenly distributed when it is going into the microwave as opposed to one big hunk of butter.Note 2 - Sweetened condensed milk: sweet, thick and sticky, sweetened condensed milk helps us to achieve fudge with a super soft and creamy texture with sweet tasting flavour.Whichever you choose, the main point is that it needs to be 'cooking chocolate' not 'eating chocolate'. Note 1 - White chocolate: you can use either white chocolate chips (as shown in the photo above or white chocolate melts).Or if fudge is your favourite thing to no bake then you might like to try the Snickers Fudge, Malteser Fudge, Marie Biscuit Fudge or the Turkish Delight Fudge □□.If you love getting your festive bake on, you might also like to try the Christmas Nuts, Christmas Chocolate Crackles, Christmas Chocolates, Christmas Oreo Balls or the Christmas Rocky Road.I find that this helps to reduce bubbles, lumps and ensures that the mixture is consistent before it is transferred into the tin. I also like to use a fork to 'whisk' the wet fudge together.You might find that after 2 mins and 30 seconds, your chocolate is all melted in which case, simply stir and allow it to combine with the remaining fudge ingredients. So the way that we achieve this is the initial 2 minutes in the microwave, followed by 30 second increments. We want to avoid overheating the chocolate.I also give the tin a very light spray with cooking oil as a means to stick the paper in the one spot so that it is not moving around when you try and fill the tin with the wet fudge mixture. When lining the cake tin (so that the fudge doesn't stick) you will find it easiest to use 2 pieces of overlapping parchment paper (baking paper).The square cake tin that I use for this recipe measures 24cm x 5 cm or 9.44 inches x 1.9 inches.The larger the tin size the smaller (height wise) your fudge pieces will be. Or you can use a rectangular tin if needed also. You will find a square cake tin will allow you to have a number of evenly cut pieces of fudge based on cutting the large square into smaller squares.Here are my top tips and tricks that I want to share with you so that you master the recipe from the get go: If in doubt of any of the above ingredients, or wanting alternatives, read this section (further below) before jumping into the instructions on how to make the recipe which are coming next □□.
