HARRY POTTER: MRS. WEASLEY'S FUDGE From:Deanna @ www.feastofstarlight.com/2015/12/19/harry-potter-mrs-weasleys-fudge/ I’ll be honest and say, I’ve never been a fan of fudge. I’ve always found it way too sweet and I never cared for the texture. These, however, are pretty darn delicious. They’re sweet but it’s so creamy and chocolatey that it’s very difficult to stop. Prep time: 2 hrs Cook time: 25 min Total time: 2 hrs, 25 min Makes: 1 8x8 pan INGREDIENTS 14 oz / 400g / 2 cups - granulated sugar 1 oz / 28g / ¼ cup - corn syrup 7 oz / 20g / ¼ cup - cocoa powder 3 oz / 85g / ½ cup - finally chopped chocolate ½ tsp - salt 8 oz / 226g / 1 cup - half and half 2 tbsp - unsalted butter
INSTRUCTIONS Lightly grease and line the 8x8 pan with parchment. Add the granulated sugar, corn syrup, cocoa powder, chocolate, salt, and half and half in a heavy bottomed pot. Place it over medium heat and let it come to a simmer. Stir gently to make sure the sugar has dissolved. Let the sugar continue to cook until it reaches 235F, softball stage. Turn off the heat and let it sit untouched until it reaches 110F. Start to stir and agitate the sugar to start crystalizing the sugar. The mixture will start cooling down and thickening. Once it gets thick and it starts losing it's sheen, pour it into the prepared pan and smooth. Let it set for at least 2 hours or more. Cut the fudge into small squares.
NOTES Equipment: Candy Thermometer 1 - 8x8 pan
