Best Three Minute Brown Sugar Fudge Recipes

CORA'S FAMOUS BROWN SUGAR FUDGE

Steps:

• Lightly butter a 6" x 10" glass pan. I like to line it with parchment paper first, then butter that. It makes it easier to remove and slice nicely.
• In a medium saucepan set over medium-high heat, mix together the brown sugar, heavy cream, and melted butter. Bring to a boil, and continue to boil for 5 minutes.
• Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the icing sugar. I sift it right into the pot, to make sure there aren't any lumps.
• Beat with an electric mixer until creamy and smooth. I use the whisk attachments for my hand mixer, but the standard beaters work well too.
• Pour the fudge into the prepared pan and let cool until firm. You can do this in the fridge if you need to save time.
• Cut into 1" squares to serve

BROWN SUGAR FUDGE

Steps:

• Butter an 8x8 inch baking dish and set aside.
• In a large saucepan, over medium heat, combine the cream, brown sugar, and salt.
• Bring to a boil, stirring often, and continue boiling until the candy comes to the soft ball stage.
• If you're using a candy thermometer, this is between 234-240 degrees F (112.2-115.6 degrees C). If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can drop a teaspoon of the candy into very cold water - it will form a soft ball which flattens on removal from the water when it has reached this stage.
• The fudge will need to boil for 10-15 minutes to reach the soft ball stage.
• Once the mixture has reached the right temperature, remove the pan from the heat and stir in the butter and vanilla. It will bubble up a bit so be careful.
• With an electric mixer, on low speed, beat the fudge for 4-6 minutes, or until it has thickened and is smooth and creamy. The longer you beat it, the thicker it will be, so don't beat for too long if you want soft fudge, beat just until it has thickened (about 4 minutes).
• Pour the fudge into the prepared baking dish and smooth the top. Let it cool completely and then cut it into squares.
• Store the fudge in an airtight container at room temperature for one to two weeks, or freeze it for up to 3 months.

OLD-FASHIONED BROWN SUGAR FUDGE (PENUCHE)

Steps:

• Add the brown sugar, granulated sugar, butter, cream and salt to a medium-sized pot over medium heat. Stir until butter and sugar are melted and combined. Stop stirring
• Bring the sugar to a boil and stop stirring. Reduce the heat to medium and continue cook until the sugar reaches 236°F. Test using the soft ball method by adding some of the candy mixture to a cup of cold water. If a soft candy ball forms then the fudge is cooked.
• Remove from heat and let cool to 110F. Once cooled add the vanilla and quickly beat with a wooden spoon until the fudge becomes smooth, lighter in colour and loses it shininess to a matte texture.
• Pour the fudge quickly into an 8" X 8" glass dish lined with parchment paper. Push the fudge into the corners of the pan with the wooden spoon or spatula and smooth off the top. Let cool completely for about 1 hour and then cut into squares.
• Store in a sealed container on the counter for up to 3 weeks.

3-MINUTE FUDGE

Steps:

• Grease an 8x8-inch square baking dish with butter.
• Place sweetened condensed milk, chocolate chips, and baking chocolate in a microwave-safe dish; cook in microwave on low power until chocolate has melted, about 3 minutes. Beat with an electric mixer until smooth, about 1 minute.
• Pour fudge into the prepared baking dish; let stand until set, 3 to 4 hours. Cut into squares to serve.

BROWN SUGAR FUDGE

Steps:

• Combine milk, brown sugar, butter, and salt in a 3-quart heavy saucepan and bring just to a boil over moderate heat, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring frequently, until mixture registers 238°F on thermometer and a teaspoon of mixture dropped into a small bowl of cold water holds a soft ball when pressed between your fingers (this will take about 30 minutes).
• Transfer to a heatproof bowl. Beat in vanilla with an electric mixer at medium speed, then add confectioners' sugar a little at a time, beating until fudge is thick and smooth, about 5 minutes.
• Spread evenly in an ungreased 8-inch square baking pan. Refrigerate, uncovered, until firm enough to cut, about 30 minutes.
• Cut fudge into 64 squares with a sharp paring knife.

BROWN SUGAR FUDGE

Steps:

• ** I used Low Fat Eagle Brand sweetened condensed milk and it came out GREAT!
• Put everything in a glass bowl. To start I didn't even mix anything. Place in the microwave for 10 minutes, only then stopping about every 2 minutes to mix.
• Put tinfoil in a 8x8 pan with it overhanging the sides. I sprayed it with a bit of Pam (no cook spray). I don't like rounded corners in pans so I used a square Tupperware plastic freezer container I have. An easy way to get the tinfoil to fit is to place the tinfoil on the outside of the container squishing it to form all around. Then pop it off and put it inside the container.
• After ten minutes in the microwave, let mixture slightly cool. Beat with electric beater for 5 minutes.
• Pour into your 8x8 pan. Let cool in the fridge for about 3 hours.
