Equipment
Method
- Prepare your baking dish by lining it with parchment paper, allowing some overhang for easy removal later.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the sweetened condensed milk, honey, and butter. Heat over medium-low, whisking continuously until the butter fully melts and the mixture is smooth.
- Increase the heat slightly and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring frequently. Continue to cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until it thickens slightly. (Use a candy thermometer if you have one; it should reach about 115°C / 240°F.)
- Remove from heat and immediately whisk in the powdered sugar and spices until well combined. The mixture will be thick.
- Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly into the corners.
- Top the fudge with shredded coconut, pressing down gently to ensure it sticks.
- Allow the fudge to cool at room temperature for about 2 hours. Once set, cut into neat squares.
- Serve as is or with a sprinkle of additional coconut for an elegant touch.
