Microwave Milk Cream | Instant Fudge | Kravings

At Christmas time, people slave over a hot stove stirring up batches of goodies like milk cream and marzipan. Years ago I developed a recipe for microwave Marzipan. The results were so astounding that I can whip up a batch of Marzipan in no time.
Last year my cousin asked if I had tried the microwave Milk cream recipe, I had not. I had made Milk cream (basically moulded fudge) years ago but it was the long and tedious traditional way and I wasn't about to go there again. I gave her recipe a whirl - note that this came from Uncle Haley (please do say a prayer for his health). I've adapted this recipe to make it fool proof for you!

Here are the ingredients and steps to make this recipe!
Milk Cream
400 ml sweetened Condensed Milk
100 gms icing Sugar
40 gms Butter
1 tsp of Vanilla essence
1/4 - 1/2 cup Almond meal or ground Cashew
Extra Icing sugar for dusting
Add the condensed milk to a large microwave safe bowl
Add the icing sugar and mix
Heat on high in the microwave for 3 mins
Remove and add the butter and mix
Heat on high in the microwave for 2 mins
Remove and add the vanilla essence
Heat on high in the microwave for 2 mins
Scrape the mixture down
Set the microwave on high in the microwave for another 2 mins but watch carefully and shut it earlier should you smell any burning
Allow the mixture to cool
On a silicone mat, sprinkle some almond meal and scrape the mixture on top of it
Add more almond meal to the surface
Allow to cool for 30 mins
Using a knife, spread the mixture out, add more almond meal and leave for another 30 mins
This is now almost set, flip it over so the undersides can dry up as well and add more almond meal
Dust the molds with icing sugar, grab the cooled milk cream, form into balls according to the size of the cavities, and press gently and release
Allow the formed milk cream batch to air dry overnight for best results and then store in an air tight container

Hi karen..gonna try this recipe for christmas, is almond meal the same thing as almond 'flour'

[@KravingsFoodAdventures]

No, almond meal is ground almonds, can be with or without skin. Almond meal is finely ground blanched almonds - so uncooked vs cooked. You can use either but you may have to use a bit more if using Almond flour.

Hi Karen, lovely recipe! Would love to get going. Could you please recommend an alternative to almond meal as we have a nut allergy in the family! Thanks and keep up your wonderful work😍😍

Hi there - I have not tried this myself ... but try kneading with a little coconut flour instead. OR leave out the almond meal and just use icing sugar when sticky.

Yes, you can but you'd have to knead with it anyway ... cashew powder could release oil when heated to be careful.

[@mariondsouza4832]

this was super easy to make and so quick .... does the colour tend to get darker the longer it is heated ? i first tried the traditional way over the stovetop and it took me 3-4 hours .... ohhh gosh that was a pain .... next morning i decided to try your recipe which a friend sent the link to but much after i had started my other batch

Yes it does get darker ....it also depends on the brand, some have more sugar than others and the temp of the microwave.

Can i use finely ground sugar instead of icing sugar?

[@KravingsFoodAdventures]

Yes you can!

[@graceviegas4110]

Can I substitute full cream milk to condensed milk pls

[@KravingsFoodAdventures]

You have to boil double the milk quantity with sugar to half to get the same consistency. For this result, it's best to use the commercial condensed milk. I haven't tried it with homemade condensed milk, so cannot guarantee the results.

[@renitasequeira9993]

Hi can’t I use sugar powder instead of icing sugar?

Hi, i tried this recipe, the batter rises up, a minute after i place it in the microwave...Why does it happen ?

[@KravingsFoodAdventures]

Typically for me it rises just after 3 mins.It's just science doing it's thing, the molecules will always rise up as heat is conducted. You just need to make sure you have a tall bowl so it doesn't spill over. Are you using a small bowl?

[@kattukat82]

Hi Karen, tried your receipe.. not sure what happened but the mixture has turned a bit sticky.. any way in correcting it?

[@maureendsouza828]

Great time saver ! I’m going to try making microwave milk cream this year! Thanks for sharing.

[@KravingsFoodAdventures]

Most microwaves are rated between 600 - 1100 Watts. I would say mine was set at about 900. Don't worry too much about the setting - use whatever standard setting you have - in the last round, you decide if you're going to use the whole 2 mins based on how your milk cream looks.

[@deborahfernandes5319]

Can this be made in an otg.

[@KravingsFoodAdventures]

Yes, in that case it's just a traditional recipe.

[@sdsouza6831]

If we make half the quantity, should the timing be reduced?

[@KravingsFoodAdventures]

No Simona - the cook time should be the same - at the most you may not need the last minute. With this recipe it also depends on your microwave, so it's something you will need to judge.
