Notes
Top Tips
- Line well: Overhang the baking paper so it’s easier to lift the fudge out once set.
- Cutting tip: Use a sharp knife dipped in hot water (and wiped dry) to cut neat squares.
- Make ahead: This fudge can be made 3–4 days in advance and stored in the fridge.
- Storage: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. It can also be frozen for up to 2 months.
