Title: PEPPERMINT CRISP FUDGE
Post by: trudy on August 04, 2013, 11:19:01 am

I found this recipe on the Thermolicious Site and made it today.  It makes a very rich fudge but it's very nice.



PEPPERMINT CRISP FUDGE

100G Peppermint crisp bars ( softly crushed)
500g dark chocolate
395g can condensed milk
30g butter
20g creme de menthe

Line a 27cm x 18cm slice tin with baking paper.
Place chocolate (dark) into Thermomix and chop for 25 secs/speed 8
Add condensed milk, butter, liqueur and cook 5 mins/90C/Speed2
Add Peppermint crisp and mix for 30-40 secs/Reverse/Speed 1  (I needed to also fold in with spatula after)
Pour into prepared tin (very stiff) while the mixture is still warm and smooth the top.
Allow to cool and cut into  small squares.
Store in an airtight container

That sounds too delicious Trudy, I'm sure I'd just eat it all if I made it.
Dangerous!

This looks yummy!  Do you think I could leave out the creme de menthe though?  We dont have any, and I dont really feel like buying a bottle just to make this.

Thanks Trudy.  I have been avoiding looking at this.  Now I know  I will have to make it.  Like Karen I don't have the liqueur but do have some peppermint essence.  A couple of drops might do.

Hi Karen & Chookie, yes I think you could leave out the creme de menth but might pay to up the peppermint crisp.  Next time I make this I won't crush the crisp as much as I like the look of the green shreds through the fudge.  Will bring a few pieces on Sunday for you to try.

Trudy,  Ral loved  what you brought on Sunday.  He has been eating small pieces at a time,  to make it last.  Lol. 
I am going to have to make this.  Thanks

Made this last night. I haven't done a chocolate drool like that for years.
Amazing.

I'm  not really a fan of dark chocolate... How much do you think the flavour would change if I made it with milk choc instead?

Title: Re: PEPPERMINT CRISP FUDGE
Post by: trudy on August 21, 2013, 01:10:56 am

Hi Squeak,
I'm not a fan of dark chocolate either but I love this, great for me because it's so rich I can stop at having one!!!
Give it a go using milk as I'm sure it should work.  Goodluck!!!

You could modify this recipe MrsG, but I have made this choc orange fudge from the forum:  http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=5112.0
I just left out the hazelnuts.  It is delicious, and oh so easy.

Made this today for you know who.  He has been asking me to make it,  since Trudy brought some to our get to get her for CC.  It is expensive to make but cuts into a lot of small squares.  Thanks for the recipe Trudy,  it is easy and delicious.

Made this fudge for Christmas hampers tasted great but just happen to check hampers before Christmas day and found this fudge had partially melted into the bottom of the bags and in one case leaked into the Santa carrier bag. I think it might be better to cook it for a little longer especially if making it ahead and if the days are going to be hot.

Thanks for the warning. Perhaps we just need to order a cooler Christmas as well.
