Ingredients:
- 397g Carnation Condensed Milk
- 150ml Milk
- 450g Demerara sugar
- 115g Butter
Instructions:
- Preparation: Line the basket of your air fryer with parchment paper, ensuring it fits well.
- Mixing Ingredients: In a heatproof bowl that fits inside your air fryer basket, combine all the ingredients.
- Air Frying: Place the bowl inside the air fryer. Set the air fryer temperature to 160°C (320°F) and cook for approximately 10-15 minutes, stirring the mixture every 5 minutes to ensure even cooking. Keep an eye on the mixture; it should reach 113-115°C (235-239°F) if using a sugar thermometer. If you don’t have a thermometer, you can perform the cold water test mentioned in the original recipe.
- Checking Consistency: Once it reaches the desired temperature or passes the cold water test, remove the bowl from the air fryer. Let it cool for about 5 minutes.
- Adding Flavors: If you wish to add other ingredients or flavors, do so at this point. Mix in nuts, natural flavorings, or chocolate chips.
- Beating the Mixture: Beat the mixture until it starts to thicken and loses its shine. This will take around 5-10 minutes. The longer you beat it, the more crumbly it will become. If you prefer smoother fudge, beat it until it just comes away from the sides of the bowl and sticks well to the spoon.
- Setting the Fudge: Transfer the mixture into the prepared square tin lined with parchment paper, smoothing it out evenly.
- Cooling: Let the fudge cool completely at room temperature. Once cooled, you can cut it into squares and enjoy your air fryer-made fudge!
Remember, air fryers vary in their cooking times and temperatures, so keep an eye on the fudge as it cooks to ensure it doesn’t burn or overcook. Adjust the cooking time if needed based on how your air fryer performs.
