I remembered a previous discussion about Russian fudge so went looking for it to post the link. When I found it [www.foodlovers.co.nz] I discovered that it was you, Zeetra, who started the thread back in 2007. If you have already tried all the suggestions on that thread without success I'm at a loss to know what to suggest.

Maybe Zeetra lost details in her move.
Here are a couple of recipes you may like to consider.
GOLDEN FUDGE (I know it's not called Russian, but it still makes a good fudge and I am sure it's just Russian Fudge wearing sun glasses and a false beard)
Remembering your thread on cups/weights; hopefully you may have a measuring cup, they are not really expensive)
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup milk (preferably full cream)
2 tablespoons sweetened condensed milk
1 dessertspoon golden syrup
1 dessertspoon butter
Boil all together for 15 minutes, stay with it, stirring with a wooden spoon often to make sure no burnt bottom.
Beat well and turn into cold buttered baking dish.
RUSSIAN TOFFEE it's not a hard
1 cup sugar
1 small tin sweetened condensed milk
1/4 lb butter (see how old this recipe is)
Melt sugar and butter, add condensed milk. Stir all the time to prevent burning. Cook about 1/4 hour; beat well, you can feel it getting thick. Pour into buttered dish to set.

I read through all the posts - and 39 week pregnant daughter and I tried to make Russian fudge yesterday - epic fail! as the kids say - I used the thermomix to process the raw sugar I had - but I couldn't get it to dissolve completely - gave up added the other ingredients - cooked untilo soft ball - whipped for 5 mins with handheld mixer - but THE FUDGE IS TOO GRAINY!
I have had the most amazing Russian fudge recently at Dida's Victoria Park - to die for! - hence the craving!
I sense a mission coming on.....I would buy sugar shares - the recipe I used had 675g!!!

Do you have the microwave Alison Holst Fabulous Fudge? This never fails and I tend to microwave it until the colour turns a light tan colour. Then I use a handheld mixer for about 5 mins until it looses its glossiness and thickens. I can't post the recipe due to copyright but just google search Alison Holst Fabulous Fudge and the recipe is available there.

Here it is Lorna. I'm a bit loathe to post the recipe in text as I suspect this person hasn't had permission to write it up. The only thing I would do is microwave it for another 2 mins or so, so that it slightly changes colour.

I ony micro wave for about 7 min , but the cheaper brand of condensed milk still left it very very soft not like it ought to be,
I have been making the other Jo Seager one with the 2x tins on milk, it very very good and much thicker, but 2x tins is just a bit much for me to use, but I think it makes a nice fudge

Thank you so much for the link to the ALison Holst recipe.
It is divine.. Super easy to make. I cooked mine for 8 minutes in the microwave, as its 1100watts. then I beat it on 3 in my standing mixer and in the last 30 seconds I tuerned it on full bore and it has come out super smooth and yummy.. I used Pams condensed milk too... I have put it in the fridge.

Hi
Give this recipe a go, I use it regularly. To be really successful with fudge you need a candy thermometer. For this recipe I only take it to 118 degrees ...Good Luck
