Found some lovely indulgent fudges to try out as pressies for xmas this year so thought i'd share them with you in case anyone liked the idea

These recipes use vanilla chips, which are much like those cute little rainbow chocolate drops but are made from vanilla candy. Most supermarkets sell them or i think you might be able to get them from spotlight and cake decorating places. Some have glucose syrup in them which is a form of sugar used to make sweets - available from supermarkets.

**CANDY CANE FUDGE**
560g vanilla baking chips
1 (14ounce) can of sweetened condensed milk
3ml peppermint extract
360gm crushed candy canes
1 dash red or green food colouring

Line and 8 inch square baking pan with aluminium foil and grease the foil
combine the vanilla chips and condensed milk in a suacepan over medium heat. Stir frequently until almost melted, remove from heat and continue to stir until smooth. When chips are completely melted, stir in the peppermint extract, food colouring and candy canes.
Spread evenly in the bottom of the prepared pan, this looks really effective if at this point you drop a few drops of food colouring on the top and swirl them in like a candy cane effect.
Chill for 2 hours then cut into squares with a hot knife.

**COOKIES AND CREAM FUDGE**
16 chocolate cream-filled sandwich cookies, broken into chunks ( then divide into 2 lots)
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
30g butter of marg
680 gms vanilla chips
5ml vanilla essence

Line 8in square baking pan with foil and grease the foil. Place half of the broken cookies in the pan spread evenly.
In a heavy saucepan, combine milk butter and vanilla chips. Cook and stir over low heat until the chips are melted. Remove from heat, stir in vanilla. Pour over cookies int he pan. Sprinkle with remaining cookies. cover and refridgerate for at least 1 hour. Cut into squares with a hot knife.

**TRADITIONAL CHOCOLATE FUDGE**
2 cups sugar
25g butter
half a cup of milk
2 tablespoons cocoa (can be halved for less intense flavour)
Half a teaspoon vanilla essence

combine all ingredients in a saucepan EXCEPT vanilla essence
gently bring to light boil and stir very very occasionally (i use very low heat, our elements go from 0 - 8 and i tend to use the 2 -4 setting).
After about 20 minutes start testing the fudge by dropping a little into a glass of cold water, if it forms a soft ball then it is ready (ie when you remove the fudge frm the water it chould keep its shape a little but be easily squished)
Remove from heat, add vanilla essence and leave for 5 minutes.
Beat witha wooden spoon until thick, the colour should lighten a little and the mixture will loose it's glossiness.

Pour into greased baking pan and leave to set. Cut once set with a heated knife.

**CREAMY CARAMEL FUDGE**
2 x 395gm cans sweetened condensed milk
2 cups firmly packed brown suger
250gms butter chopped
A third of a cup liquid glucose
A quarter of a cup of golden syrup
400gm good-quality white cooking chocolate - chopped

Grease a 3.5cm deep, 16.5 x 26cm (base) slab pan. Line with baking paper, allowing a 2cm overhang at both ends.

Place condensed milk, sugar, butter glucose and golden syrup in a large (14cup capacity) heatproof, mircowave-safe bowl. Microwave, uncovered on medium-high for 8 - 10 minutes, stirring with a baloon-whisk every 2 minutes every 2 minutes or until mixture comes to the boil.
Microwave, uncovered on medium-high for a further 5 - 6 minutes, stirring every minute with a wooden spoon, or until thick and golden.
Place bowl on a board, stand for 2 minutes or until bubbles subside . Add white chocolate. Stir until choclate melts and mixture is smooth. Pour hot fudge mixture into prepared pan. Smooth surface. Stand at room temperature for 3 hours. then refridgerate until firm. Lift out onto a board, cut into squares.

(you can make this fudge ahead, wrap in wax paper and store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 month.)

**CREAMY CHOCOLATE FUDGE**
3 cups sugar
3/4 of a cup creamy evaporated milk
100gm butter
1 packet Allens marshmellows
1 teaspoon vanila essence
1 packet NESTLE dark melts

line a 20 cm square baking tin with foil or baking paper

combine sugar, evaporated milk and butter in a medium-sized, heavy based saucepan. Bring to a rolling boil over a medium heat, stirring constantly. Boil stirring for 8 minutes. Remove from heat

Add marshmellows and vanilla essence, stirring until melted. Add the neslte dark melts, stirring until the chocolate melts. Quickly pour into tin and smooth the top.

Once fudge is cool and set, cut into small bars with a hot knife. Refridgerate before serving.

**WHITE CHOCLATE LIQUER FUDGE**

1 x 395gm can sweetened condensed milk
200gm (1 cup) firmly packed brown sugar
125 gm butter, cubed
2 tablespoons liquid glucose
100gm white chocolate (like Nestle milkybar brand) roughly chopped
