Perfectly Paired Whisky & Lime Fudge

WHISKY & LIME FUDGE

Makes 36

INGREDIENTS

¾ can condensed milk

320g white chocolate, chopped

½ lime, juiced and zested

3 tbsp Bain’s Cape Mountain Whisky

METHOD

Line 20x20cm square tray with baking paper and set aside.
Add the chopped white chocolate to a large glass bowl and place the bowl over a pot with simmering water on medium-high heat. Stir the chocolate often until melted and smooth. *Chef’s Tip: Keep an eye on the chocolate so that it doesn’t burn!
Add the condensed milk to the white chocolate and cook over the simmering water, while stirring continuously, about 8-10 minutes.
Once melted and combined, take the chocolate off the heat and add in the lime juice, lime zest and the Bain’s Cape Mountain Whisky. Stir to ensure that everything is well mixed.
Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking tray and allow to set for 5-10 minutes before cutting it into 36 equal cubes. *Chef’s Tip: It is easier to cut the fudge at this point rather than when it hardens!
Allow to set for 2 hours at room temperature. Serve and ENJOY!
