This is the most delicious tasting fudge, and so easy to make, just mix, and microwave, no need to use a candy thermometer for this just make sure to cook the fudge mixture for the full 15 minutes that's what gives this fudge it's flavour and texture. Since this makes a thin layer of fudge, I sometimes make two separate batches and stack them on top of each other to make a thicker layer - well many mixed reviews so I am guessing that every microwave heats differently for me I always have great results!
Ingredients:
1 cup whipping cream
1 cup white sugar
1 cup brown sugar
3 tablespoons butter (no substitutions)
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional)
Directions:
1. In a large microwave-safe glass bowl (8-cup Pyrex measuring cup works well) with a spoon mix together whipping cream, white sugar and brown sugar just until combined; microwave at high for 15 minutes stirring, using a wooden spoon at half time (note: it is important that the mixture cooks in the microwave for the full 15 mins).
2. Remove from microwave (careful the bowl is HOT!).
3. Add butter and vanilla; with a spoon, mix well for about 1 minute.
4. Add chopped nuts (if using) mix.
5. Pour into a buttered 8 x 8-in square baking pan (or a smaller pan).
6. Refrigerate for 2 or more hours before cutting into small squares.
7. Delicious!
