Hi Pamellie, any chance I could have your coffee & white choc fudge balls recipe please. Thanks.

Here you go, it's another Sophie Gray one. I didn't have any coffee liqueur so I just used instant coffee instead. I shaped it into balls about the size of a marble, rather than doing squares and when I dipped in white chocolate I had to do them twice to give good coverage. The were yummy.
Chocolate Coffee Fudge 125g butter 2 tbsp golden syrup 1 can condensed milk (around 390g in an average can) 1 cup brown sugar 75g dark chocolate 2 tbsp coffee liqueur (we used Cafe Java) ¼ cup kremelta or solid vegetable fat 375g chocolate melts Grease a smallish shallow dish or tin, I use a square cake tin. In a medium saucepan melt the butter over a low heat, add the syrup, condensed milk, brown sugar and liqueur. Stir continuously until sugar is dissolved. Bring the mixture up to the boil then reduce the heat boil gently until the mixture reaches soft ball stage, or 114°C on a sugar thermometer. The mixture will have turned a caramel colour by this stage.
Remove from the heat and stir in the chocolate, beating till smooth. Pour into the tin and leave to set. Once fudge has set, melt the chocolate melts and kremelta together.
Slice fudge into squares and dip into melted chocolate. Place onto baking paper to set.
Package in to gift size quantities and store in a cool place

I got them from The Warehouse, they were on special 3 for the price of 2, so they cost me $4 for 3 boxes.

How much instant coffee, please Pam!

I just useda small teaspoon of coffee powder and put it straight into the butter etc. It was quite a subtle flavour which suits me as I'm not a coffee fan (even though I did make them to give away). I tasted as I was making it but I found the flavour intensifes on cooling.

Made this last night but replaced hazelnuts with chopped almonds (untoasted) and cranberries.Couldn't believe how easy it was to make.I cut it this morning - some into bars and some into squares and have it packaged for giftgiving.Thanks for sharing the recipe pamellie - I'm sure it'll be in one of the books I have - will be a Christmas favourite from now on.
