Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Butter or oil a pan about 7 inches square, This size isn't vastly important to the recipe but it will determine how thick and deep your fudge will be.
  2. Place the milk and sugar in a heavy, large (has to be able to contain 4 times the volume of the original ingredients to avoid boiling over) sauce pan and stir with a wooden spoon until the sugar has dissolved.
  3. Add chopped chocolate, chopped butter and honey and stir into the mixture until fully melted and blended together.
  4. Bring to a boil, Cover and boil for 3 minutes (This helps wash down the sides of any stray sugar crystals).
  5. Uncover insert a prewarmed (tempered) sugar thermometer, boil until soft ball stage (116C/240F).
  6. Once soft ball stage has reached, plunge the base of the pan into an ice water bath until the tempeture has reached 50C/122°F.
