Christmas Calendar 2015 - Chai Fudge

After  my success making liquorice fudge I decided to make a more spiced version using some of the sweetened condensed milk from my shopping expedition to Malmö. For the spicy taste I used vanilla chai powder from David Rio. Another option could have been to use some of the chai sugar.

As I had some surplus whipping cream standing looking at me in the refrigerator I decided to use only dairy whipping cream instead of a combination of butter and milk.

For the whipping part after the cooking I decided to team up with my very good kitchen help. You could also use a basic electrical beater or whip the fudge by hand, if you need to exercise during this calorie rich season.


UPDATE 10 December 2015:
This sugar is being forward for the monthly blogging event Tea Time Treats having the theme ofsugar and spice. Tea Time Treast is managed by Karen from Lavender and Lovage and Jane from The Hedge Combers.
