I made some and substituted 100ml of the milk for 100ml of Baileys. OMG! It was divine! People - please try this recipe. MUCH better than mine :)

My mum has come up with a couple of new ideas to go in to the fudge, it's Cherry Brandy or Cornish Clotted Cream. I know you can get the Clotted Cream in Tesco

*sigh*
I just put on 2lb looking at this thread!
And the diabetic nurse would have kittens if I actually made the fudge as I cant help but taste at every stage... and the tins I have have round corners...and if you want nice squares the corner pieces have to go...:lol:
