How to Make Jos Fabulous Fudge

Grease and line a 20 x 30 cm deep baking tin (or two smaller tins) with non-stick baking paper, ensuring the paper extends over the edges for easy lifting.
In a large, heavy-based saucepan, combine 340g (1 1/2 cups) granulated sugar, 170g (6 oz) unsalted butter, and 1/2 cup (40g) evaporated milk. Stir over medium heat until the butter melts completely and the sugar dissolves fully. (Stir frequently to prevent sticking)
Bring the mixture to a boil and continue to boil gently, stirring frequently, for about 6-8 minutes, until it reaches the soft-ball stage (116°C/240°F on a sugar thermometer) and turns a rich, dark caramel brown. A silicon spatula is highly recommended!
Remove from heat and let the mixture stand for 5 minutes, or until the bubbling subsides.
Add 340g (12 oz) good quality milk chocolate, chopped, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Stir until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth and glossy.
Pour the fudge into the prepared tin and smooth the top surface using a spatula.
Let cool to room temperature completely.
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until the fudge is firm.
Lift the fudge from the tin using the overhanging baking paper. Cut into squares and serve.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 6 weeks (if it lasts that long!).
