Advice
- Always use a wooden spoon, it glides better into the dough.
- Always use a metal whisk: the dough becomes very thick when you beat it, so a plastic whisk could break.
- When it's time to add the butter, condensed milk, salt, and Golden Syrup to the dough, be quick because otherwise the dough could become either too soft or too hard.
- Pour the batter into the pan as quickly as possible, otherwise it will start to solidify in the pan and become difficult to pour.
- It is not essential that the fudge be cut into squares, you can experiment with the shapes you prefer!
Warnings
- If the dough starts to smell burnt, remove it from the heat immediately. If you're quick enough it can still be eaten.
- Never overdo the Golden Syrup, otherwise the fudge will turn into an indestructible toffee.
- If it seems to you that the dough is boiling excessively, lower the heat or even turn it off. Then continue cooking it at a lower temperature.
- Don't put the fudge in the fridge, it will ruin the texture.
