Making Fudge with Condensed Milk

Last week, I made fudge with marshmallow fluff, and I promised that I would be making fudge with other methods soon. Well, here’s the first of them; using condensed milk as the main cream ingredient.

I was a little surprised with this one. With the fluff method, you need a candy thermometer, you need to monitor the temperature, and it’s a surprising amount of work. When you use condensed milk, you don’t have to do any of that. It’s way easier! You also don’t need added sugar because the condensed milk is already sweetened.

The fudge produced by this recipe is a bit thicker, a bit chewier, and has a richer chocolate flavor. Since it’s based more on condensed milk, it’s a lot more like the brigadeiros I made a while back.

I’ll go deeper into a comparison of the fudges later, but for now, if you want a richer fudge with an easier process than the fluff method, this is definitely your choice. Here’s how to make it!
