How to Make Fresh Strawberry Fudge

  1. Slice 1 pound of fresh strawberries into thin pieces.
  2. In a large saucepan, combine 1 cup of milk, 2 cups of granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup (1 stick) of unsalted butter over medium heat.
  3. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil, stirring constantly.
  4. Reduce heat to medium-low. Stir in the sliced strawberries and 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice.
  5. Continue stirring constantly and cook until the fudge reaches 234°F (112°C) on a candy thermometer. This will take approximately 15-20 minutes. Be diligent in stirring to prevent burning.
  6. Remove from heat and immediately pour the fudge into a buttered 8x10 inch baking pan.
  7. Let the fudge cool completely at room temperature before cutting and serving. For faster cooling, you can refrigerate it.
