Sri Lankan Milk Fudge
Ingredients
  • 2 teaspoons butter, or as needed
  • 1 1/2 cups white sugar
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1 (10 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped cashew nuts
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 drops rose extract, or to taste
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and grease a square 9-inch baking pan with 2 teaspoons of unsalted butter.
2
Combine granulated sugar and water in a large saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar has fully incorporated. Gradually pour in sweetened condensed milk; continue to cook and stir until the mixture starts to bubble, approximately 5 minutes. Lower the heat to a low setting.
3
Add cashews to the saucepan and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens, around 10 minutes.
4
In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons of softened butter, vanilla extract, and rose extract. Gradually incorporate this mixture into the saucepan, stirring constantly until the concoction reaches a very stiff consistency, approximately 8 to 10 minutes.
5
Pour the mixture into the buttered baking pan and use a spatula or the back of a spoon to spread it evenly.
6
Allow the mixture to cool and set until firm, around 15 minutes. Cut into 1-inch pieces and transfer them to an airtight container for storage.
