Everyone loves chocolate fudge, and my fondest memories of fudge are of those from Lonavala, a tiny hill station in west India. No one visiting this place can leave without buying a generous amount of Lonavala's famous chocolate fudge!

20 squares (change servings and units)

Ingredients

400 g sweetened condensed milk
100 g chopped almonds or walnuts or peanuts or cashews (or use a mixture of nuts)
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
50 g butter
3/4 cup sugar

Directions

1
Grease a shallow dish with butter.
2
Pour condensed milk into a thick-bottomed pan.
3
Add butter, sugar, cocoa powder and the chopped nuts into the pan.
4
Stir continuously on a low flame till the mixture leaves the sides of the pan (about 15 minutes).
5
Remove from flame and pour evenly into the prepared greased dish.
6
Allow to cool and set, and cut into 1 inch squares.
7
Store in an airtight tin in the refrigerator.

found this recipe while browsing 5 ingredients or less. Since my daughter brought home a 4# bag of chopped peanuts and I had all the ingredients this was a good opportunity to whittle that bag of peanuts down. This recipe is very simple and has the old fashioned taste of hershey's cocoa fudge with less hassle. I didn't have a thick bottom saucepan so I was extremely cautious about the heat on my electric stove. Consequently it took me longer than 15 minutes for the fudge to pull away from the pan. More like 15 minutes from the simmering point. But no matter this fudge is very good, easy and a recipe that will give consistent results.

Hi! Anu,Made these on Saturday to and they turned out really good!!! I timed the cooking and found it took exactly 15 minutes for the mix to leave the sides of the non-stick vessel I used.(I live in Mumbai too so maybe that is the reason ) I used only walnuts in the fudge and topped them in the dish as well. So used over 1 cup of walnuts. The fudge is perfect just like the one we get from Lonavala. Thanks for posting this wondrous recipe. Fay

I've tried this three times because the flavour is excellent and it's really easy but each time it's come out like a very sticky and squidgy chocolate fudge like Denise's. My daughters love it but I just can't get it into neat, dry squares I've left it for ages and it's left the sides of the pan - any longer and it will burn.
