PROCEDURE

for making chocolate fudge recipe

• • • • Begin by greasing and lining the base of an 8” or 9” square pan with greaseproof paper/baking parchment/butter paper. Alternatively use two 8” round cake tins or one deep 9” or 10” round pan.
      • In a sauce pan, put in the water and the chocolate together and heat until the chocolate melts. Allow to cool completely, for the reaping the best of this chocolate fudge recipe.
      • In a mixing bowl, assemble 200 gm (1 1/2 cups) plain flour, 50 gm (1/4 cup) cocoa powder, 30 gm (4 tbsp) sugar, 2 tsp baking powder and 1 tsp baking soda, mix with a spoon and sieve once to make the mixture uniform.
      • Preheat the oven at about 150 c/300F.
      • Add in the condensed milk, oil, vanilla and melted chocolate to the flour mixture. Beat with an electric hand mixer, stand mixer, whisk or spoon just until the mixture is uniform and smooth and there are no lumps. This shouldn’t take more than a minute with an electric hand mixer/beater. Be careful not to over beat as this tends to stiffen the batter which might lead to a less softer cake. This step is critical for the chocolate fudge recipe

      • After the chocolate fudge recipe is done, allow the cake to rest in the tin for 3 to 4 minutes and then invert the cake on to a cooling rack.
