Help please - does anyone have a really easy recipe for fudge? I used to use Edmonds recipe (lost the old book) and my new Edmonds book doesn't have recipe for fudge in it. I have other recipes but just want something quick & easy (a no fail one please).

I always, always double this - cooking time remains the same and then pour it into a buttered roast pan.Delish.(Only make it on special occasions now though).May as well use the whole tin than have a half left over - unless you like it by the spoonfull that is.

yesterday on Nigella she made, a block of choc, a tin of condensed milk 2 tablespoons of butter melted it all together and added pistachio nuts and spread it out and then cut it up, she called it Fudge and it looked easy as.
i do mine in the microwave its fool proof you must beat it with electric beaters for nearly five mins i find whipping all that air into it helps it set 3 cup sugar 200ml condensed milk 125 gm butter 1 tsp vanilla ess 1/2 cup milk 1 tbsp golden syrup pinch salt
bang it in the microwave for 15 mins stop and stir every 3 be very careful taking it out as its super hot and use the largest bowl you can find beat for 3-5 mins you will feel it start to thicken pour out onto baking paper in a dish makes it easier to get out makes heaps
