Notes
Check out my other delicious dessert recipes here .For variations, possibilities, topping ideas refer to the details in the post.Make 48 servings 1" pieces . Store the fudge in airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks or in the fridge for up to 4 weeks. You may individually wrap each fudge piece, place it in a air tight container and freeze it for 3 months.Not a microwave fan!Then cook it in a sauce pan on a low flame stirring often to avoid any burning or sticking of chocolate at the bottom.Alternatively you may use a double boiler method to melt the fudge mixture. For Indian Spiced Thandai Fudge -I have added saffron, cardamom, black pepper in addition to thandai powder which elevates the taste of the fudge even more. Black pepper cuts the sweetness of the fudge. It’s completely optional.
