Trini Coconut Fudge

Coconut fudge is one of those guilty pleasures that every Trini loves.My first memory of fudge was eating my great-grandmother's fudge from her parlour/shop (it was the best!). Another favourite of mine is Long Circular Mall's fudge, it's to die for. This is my recipe, and it's extremely delicious but i'm not sure if it's as good as their's.
Ingredients:
2 cups of granulated sugar
2 cups of coconut milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 can condensed milk
1tbsp butter
pinch of salt
candy thermometer
Yields-20

I made this without the condensed milk and it came out perfect. Less sugar is always good. I did add a little of the coconut shaves for texture and that was genius!!! Txs for the recipe.

[@mizzpoetrics]

This is very much like Haitian coconut fudge, except we also add cinnamon sticks & star anise to boil with the milk. Sometimes we may also add lime zest. Both versions are delicious!

How many days can it be store

[@acaribbeanStories]

My aunt does her fudge with carnation milk and no butter. I do mine with condensed milk and I add the vanilla and my other flavored extract towards the end when it's done. I don't use butter and it comes out just as good. Never had to put it in the fridge to cool overnight either. I'm going to try it with the butter to see.

[@cmaharaj123]

Looks yumm, gonna make these for my son's multicultural festival in school; wish me luck

Could you use the coconut flesh, or does it affect the consistency of the fudge?

[@TasteofTrini]

You can use pieces of the dried coconut, but toast in a pot first

[@dande-lion4312]

hey, mi ah Lucian and love all you cooking...lol

[@sarahbass3629]

This recipe is amazing! I just made it yesterday and it turned out just like the fudge I had in Trinidad! Thank you for sharing it. I live in Chicago and sadly there is very little of anything Trini here, which is why your youtube channel is so valuable, as we can make much of what we miss. My (Trini) mother was quite impressed with my fudge :D I am American-born but trying to learn to cook more and more in the Trinbago tradition, so you being such a good (young) cook is awesome and encouraging to me! I look forward to learning/trying all of your recipes :) Thanks again! I'm off to have another piece of fudge for breakfast...:D

[@sandymoreno5671]

Hi this looks very delicious, it's a little hard to tell what texture it is, I really like the harder type fudge (like the packaged fudge you get at the grocery in tnt)as opposed to chewy type fudge, would you say this is more on the harder side instead of chewy, I always make it either too hard or too soft, it never comes out right, :( but great videos keep up the great work, I'm gonna subscribe! ( they love how trini does cook cook cook cook)!!! :)

[@TasteofTrini]

+kelly ramlal Hey, this is more soft. It's kinda like the fudge you would get in Long Circular mall. I know the fudge you're talking about, the brown sugar one, that's really good as well! Thanks for subscribing! Welcome! (Iz ah trini, trini.....just had to lol)
