How to Make Jewel Studded Holiday Fudge With Ginger And Cranberries
- Line a 20cm square baking tin with non-stick baking parchment, leaving an overhang on the sides to lift the fudge out later.
- In a heavy-based saucepan, combine the sugar, evaporated milk, double cream, butter, and salt.
- Heat gently, stirring occasionally, until the butter is melted and the sugar is dissolved.
- Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly.
- Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring continuously, until the mixture reaches the soft-ball stage. (Test by dropping a small amount into a glass of ice water; it should form a soft ball that flattens slightly when pressed between your fingers.)
- Remove from heat and immediately beat vigorously with a whisk for 3-5 minutes, until the mixture loses its gloss and becomes slightly grainy.
- Stir in the chopped ginger, cranberries, and vanilla extract.
- Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared tin and spread evenly.
- Allow to cool completely at room temperature.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
- Lift the fudge from the tin using the parchment overhang and cut into small squares.
- For gifting, package the fudge squares in cellophane bags, glass jars, or boxes, and add a pretty ribbon and ingredient label.
