Chocolate or Dark Chocolate Fudge Mix
Before You Start
(DO NOT USE THE FUDGE PIE MIX FOR THIS BY MISTAKE!!)
From the kit you will require: One bag of chocolate or dark chocolate fudge mix, paper liner, cardboard tray and 5ml measuring spoon.
In addition you will require: 8 tsp (40ml) water, 30g salted or unsalted butter, fork or spatula and a mixing bowl suitable for the microwave.
Instructions
(for a 750W to 850W microwave)1. Place 8 teaspoons of water (40ml) and 30g of butter in a bowl and microwave until butter is just melted. This will take about one minute on high. DO NOT BOIL.
2. Add contents of microwave fudge mix bag to the butter and water. Mix with a fork or spatula until it forms a thick dry paste.
3. Microwave on a high setting for 30 seconds, then stir again scraping all loose mix from the sides of the bowl. The mix will be very dry and powdery, do not be tempted to add more water!
4. Return to microwave for a further 30 seconds on high, remove and stir again making sure that the mix is smooth. (Microwaves do vary, if the mix is still lumpy or you have a lower power microwave, microwave for a further 30 seconds and repeat this step until the mix is well mixed and of a smooth consistency) BE CAREFUL NOT TO OVER HEAT THE FUDGE. DO NOT BOIL.
5. Place rectangular paper liner in rectangular tray. (If no paper liners available see instructions on inside of this booklet).
6. Pour fudge into tray and leave to set at room temperature. Setting times will vary depending on how hot your fudge mix was. It may take a few hours to set. The cardboard tray can be re-used, do not throw it away.
