The Keeper of the Dutch Fudge Recipe!

This is a recipe from way back in my family....the way my parents used to make "Melk Tammeletjies"!

I have made it for the Christmas Cookie Jar this year....

Here's the recipe!

In a large pot, combine:
1 tin of condensed milk
1 tin of water (the condensed milk tin)
4 cups of sugar
250g butter! (no substitutes)



Bring to the boil and cook for about 35 minutes whilst stirring until your hand almost drops off!
The colour will become a glorious golden brown.


Take off the heat and add 1 tsp lemon essence and stir vigorously!
Pour into a well greased pan. Cut into small squares before set!

And here's my Christmas Cookie Jar!

 filled with yummy, buttery fudge....



I wonder just how long this will last!



Special little elves came to visit!

Happy Holidays!
