Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Goat milk
- 1 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup Butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt
Instructions
Prepare an 8x8-inch square pan by lining it with parchment paper or greasing it lightly with butter. Set it aside.
In a medium-sized heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the goat milk, unsweetened cocoa powder, and granulated sugar. Stir the mixture thoroughly until well combined.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir continuously until the sugar is completely dissolved, and the mixture begins to smooth out.
Add the butter to the saucepan and continue to stir until it is fully melted and incorporated into the mixture.
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil while stirring constantly; this step is critical to prevent burning. Use a candy thermometer to monitor the temperature and continue to cook until the mixture reaches the soft-ball stage (234-240°F or 112-116°C).
Once the desired temperature is reached, remove the saucepan from the heat and allow it to cool slightly for 5 minutes.
Stir in the vanilla extract and sea salt, mixing quickly to ensure even incorporation.
Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
Allow the fudge to set at room temperature for 2-3 hours or until firm. For faster results, you can refrigerate it for 1-2 hours.
Once set, remove the fudge from the pan using the parchment paper and cut it into 12 equal squares or your desired serving size.
Serve and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
