Tips for Making the Best Fantasy Fudge
- If you wish for a thinner fudge, you may use a 9×13” baking dish instead.
- I highly recommend using a candy thermometer when heating up the sugar mixture. It is important to be very precise with reaching the correct temperature without going over.
- Resist the urge to increase the heat while simmering the milk and sugar. The temperature will stall once it hits 225°. Be patient and let it continue to simmer. Increasing the heat also means increasing the risk of scalding the milk, which can give the fudge a burnt flavor.
