1/2cupdulce de leche
1tbspunsalted butter
To roll
1/2cupcrystal sugar
1/2tspcinnamon powder
Instructions
Dulce de Leche Fudge
Mix all ingredients: condensed milk, 1/2 cup dulce de leche, and butter in a saucepan.
Over medium heat, stir mixture without stopping, while you bring it to a boil.
Once mixture comes to a boil, reduce heat to medium low.
Keep stirring non stop while it cooks.
Don’t stop stirring the mixture, or the fudge will stick to the bottom of the pan.
You should cook it for about 15 minutes.
To test if the fudge is ready, simply tilt the pan and if the mixture comes off from the bottom of the pan, you’re good to go. Mixture will look shiny and firm. If you run a spatula on the bottom of the pan, fudge will take about 5 seconds to come together again. You are looking for a very thick stage.
Remove fudge to a buttered plate. Let it cool down until it gets to room temperature and then stick it in the fridge.
Let it sit in the fridge for an hour or so until it’s cool.
To roll
Mix the sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl.
With buttered hands, scoop a small amount of fudge and roll between your palms to form a smooth ball. Coat the ball in the sugar and cinnamon mixture. Put in small baking cups (I used 1 inch ones).
Do this until you’re done with all the fudge. You’ll obtain around 20 balls depending on how big you make them.
Storage
Store the Dulce de Leche Fudge in the fridge for up to 15 days.
You can also store it in the freezer for up to 2 months, make sure it’s well packaged. To thaw it, simply place it in the fridge a couple hours before serving.
Notes
*You can also roll the balls in sprinkles, shredded coconut, chopped nuts.**If you want to make this to fill the inside of a cake or cupcakes, you can cook slightly less, and don’t place it in the fridge before filling the cake or might become too hard to spread. Let it come to room temperature and then spread it on the cake.
