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!
