Pecan & Caramel Cheesecake Slice

Caramel Hazelnut Fudge

The fudge was not cooked long enough but it's ok, you can still eat it. You just need a spoon...

Recipe?

Nice and easy one!

Here it is:

Caramel Hazelnut Fudge

Ingredients:

395g can sweetened condensed milk

1 cup firmly packed brown sugar

125g butter, chopped

2 tablespoons glucose syrup

2 tablespoons golden syrup (I use honey)

180g white chocolate

120g dry-roasted hazelnuts, roughly chopped

Directions:

• Grease a 4cm deep, 19cm (base) square can tin. Line base and sides with baking paper, allowing a 3cm overhang on all sides.
• Place condensed milk, sugar, butter, glucose syrup and golden syrup in a heavy based saucepan over medium-low heat.
• Cook, stirring occasionally for 3mins or until combined. Increase heat to medium. Cook, stirring for 10-12mins or until thick and glossy. Add chocolate. Cook, stirring until melted.
• Working quickly, spread mixture into prepared tin. Level top with a spatula if needed. Stand for 1min then press hazelnuts into top. Set aside for 20mins to cool.
• Refrigerate overnight, or until set. Lift from pan and using a warm knife, cut in to small squares.
• Store in an airtight container in the fridge, between layers of baking paper, for up to one week.
