So here we are at Day 30 of NaBloPoMo and I'm happy that I've stuck through this, without too much reverting to memes or 30 second googles of colourful pictures. I will think of this month mostly as a month of extreme tiredness. Of laughter. Of discombobulation and restlessness. Of sadness. Of failing as a parent, but getting better as a wife. Of holding secrets that make my stomach churn with anxiety but also light up my veins.
Anyhow, I actually prepared something earlier for today, in readiness for tomorrow, the first day of December (or for me, the first day of Christmas).
Caramel Fudge.
Ingredients
125 butter
1½ cups brown sugar
2 tablespoons golden syrup (though I've used maple syrup and I think it tastes better)
395g can condensed milk
180g white cooking chocolate
-
Line a square cake/brownie tin with baking paper
Melt butter in a large saucepan
Add brown sugar, golden syrup and condensed milk; stir over a medium heat until boiling
-
Lower heat and cook, stirring for 10 minutes
-
Remove from heat and add chocolate; stir until smooth.
Quickly spread in tin as it will start to set immediately. Allow to cool on bench top and slice when completely cool.
- Refrigerate (assuming there is any left that hasn't made its way into your mouth)

Congrats on completing the month!
I managed to complete it also, and found that I got my blogging mojo back - it's more enjoyable than I remember. ;-)
lol cesca, it was a whole lot less painful than I was expecting. I find myself thinking of things to write now so hopefully I'll keep it up. I've been enjoying your blog too :)
Long time lurker, first time commenter! Just had to come back and say a huge THANK YOU for the fudge recipe - I made it for an EOY party tonight and got soooo many compliments. It was just perfect - the first non-grainy homemade fudge I've ever had! Thanks and please do keep up the frequent posts, love your blog. :)
Thanks for the recipe Jenn - I just made this and am waiting or it to set (although I must admit the end of my fingers are a little red from trying to taste test before it was cool enough!!)
