I understand that there is to be a chocolate shortage. Do not panic ladies and gents I come to the rescue. That craving may be satisfied and set a sophisticated tone at the same time. Impossible you say, no, not all impossible. Read on and see how I achieve elegance by microwave.
I have taken to serving fudge if we have guests. To me its lazy poshness. It makes me appear chic, and means I can avoid making a dessert. 'I have some homemade fudge' I say to discerning vistors, 'would you like some?' As soon as the words leave my lips, with a Queen's English inflection, I feel myself take on a gracefulness. My neck becomes aristocratically long, conveniently smoothing out my wrinkles, and my chin tips up ever so slightly.
The fudge kit is a purchase I am avidly making use of from my favourite channel. I enjoy both the consumption of said fudge and the elegant affect it has on me.
So taken am I with the fudge that I have some step by step pictures to share with you for your salivating enjoyment. I have not included photos of my elongated neck nor elegance of posture. That can be left to your imagination.
Firstly, I use a bit of water, a bit of butter, the packet of fudge mix and the instructions
I pour fudge mix into my stand mixer bowl with melted butter and water.
I choose my stand mixer head, after stroking mixer a few times of course.
I set my mixer to whir and make a breadcrumb like mass,
I put the mass in a microwavable bowl and melt the mass to a goo
The goo is then rotated around the mixers bowl again.
After a bit of heating and rotating some more its ready to tip into the supplied container for setting.
After its cooled I cut it and then leave it until I need to serve it. That means hiding it in a cupboard.
Back up a step! Who said I leave it?..No I test it.....a couple of times to be sure.
Then I securely wrap it to avoid temptation.
Later when required I serve it to guests, using an elegant stance.
and watch it disappear.
