Recipe Reviews
Amazing! This is going to be my go to recipe from now on!!
Easy to make and lush to eat without being very sweet
So quick and easy to make, I used rough measurements as only needed a small amount and it perfectly covered my toffee and vanilla traybake!
It's very nice but struggled to get it the correct consistency for piping. I will definitely try again.
great recipe
Fudge was excellent Definitely need to add milk. I heated the butter and chocolate in 30 seconds blasts in the microwave. This definitely needs a strong hand. Have a new kitchen aid so it mixed very simply. I think chocolate quality is important and can affect the consistency. Really rich texture.
