Ingredients for cappuccino fudge recipe
- Sugar: It will give the coffee fudge the necessary sweetness. Use half a cup of granulated sugar. Brown sugar can be used instead of white granulated sugar, but that will affect the color of the cappuccino fudge.
- Espresso Shots: To give the espresso fudge a strong coffee flavor, use two espresso shots for this recipe or two tablespoons of instant coffee dissolved in half a cup of hot water. If you don’t want to use espresso shots or instant coffee, you can use strong-brewed coffee in the same quantity as two espresso shots.
- Condensed Milk: Condensed milk thickens the fudge mixture and gives it a sweet, chewy taste. Use 2/3 cans of condensed milk.
- Butter: Take a quarter cup of unsalted butter. Butter and condensed milk moisten the fudge and make it a creamy, chewy, sweet delight. I would not recommend using salted butter, but you can if you want.
- Vanilla Extract: Small a teaspoon (half tsp more precisely) of vanilla extract will give the fudge a sweet aroma.
- White Chocolate Chips: We will add a quarter cup of white chocolate chips to enhance the cappuccino flavour. The sweetness of sugar and condensed milk balances these white chocolate chips’ sweet and bitter taste.
Instructions
1.Add sugar and espresso shots in a saucepan on medium-low heat. Stir the sugar syrup by picking up the pan and swirling it in the air. Bring the coffee and sugar syrup to a boil. Melt the sugar completely.
2.Add condensed milk to the sugar syrup once the sugar crystals are dissolved completely. Mix it up and bring it to a boil for about 3 minutes. The syrup will start to thicken, and make sure you are mixing in between because it may start to burn.
3.Mix butter and vanilla extract in syrup and mix well for another 3 minutes. Toss in white chocolate chips and mix well. To check that the fudge mixture is ready, take a small amount and make a ball. If the ball forms easily without sticking to your fingers, that means it’s the great consistency of the fudge.
4.Take an 8×8 dish and line it with parchment paper. Transfer the fudge mixture, flatten the surface, and let the fudge cool to room temperature. Refrigerate it for about 3-4 hours, and cut the fudge into your desired bars and squares. Serve the cappuccino fudge with some coffee, and enjoy.
How to serve the Fudges
Serve the cappuccino fudge with a creamy cup of coffee or a cup of milk. Hazelnut coffee or freshly strong brewed coffee is best to pair with espresso fudge. Garnish the fudge with cocoa powder, cinnamon powder, ground coffee beans, or drizzle chocolate.
Expert Tips
- Mix the sugar and espresso mixture completely. When the sugar and espresso mixture is completely dissolved, add condensed milk.
- Wait until the sugary syrup and condensed milk are completely mixed. This will ensure the creamy flavor of the fudge.
- Check the consistency of the cappuccino fudge mixture through a ball test. Take a very small piece of the fudge mixture and roll it into a ball. The fudge batter is ready for the further procedure if it is easily made without mess.
- Let the fudge batter cool at room temperature before putting it in the refrigerator. It will help smooth the freezing process and make the fudge firm, sweet, fudgy, and chewy.
- Before cutting the fudge, dip the knife in hot water for a while to ensure smooth cutting. Cut the coffee fudge into squares, bars, or any desired shape. Sprinkle with cocoa powder and cinnamon, or add the coffee bean for a beautiful presentation of this cappuccino fudge recipe.
