a snowy Thursday treat

well, what's a girl to do when there's suddenly a massive amount of snow over night and school is cancelled for the day?


(I love the old fashioned lamp posts that they have along the sea front here in Portsmouth)





..Try a new recipe of course! and here it is - it comes highly recommended!


Chocolate Fudge

Ingredients:

400g chocolate (I experimented and used half dark, half light which has worked really well)
1 can Condensed Milk
25g butter (or margarine)
100g Icing Sugar

bits & bobs that you want to fill it with - I've used marshmallows, crumbled digestives and chunks of white chocolate (I would have like to put in pecans, but my housemate is allergic!! You could also add in raisons, or glacee cherries.

This is such an easy recipe that its possible to be as creative as you feel! (In fact, I think that plain may be yummy too!)


First, Chop your chocolate:




















Pour into a non-stick saucepan with your condensed milk and butter:
























Stir! Be careful not to let the chocolate burn & stick to the bottom of the pan:






















Take off the heat and sift in your icing sugar.
Make sure you stir it in really well:






















Poke in all your extra bits and bobs:




















Put in the fridge for an hour:
















Yum yum, Chocolate overdose! :)
