Description

Magical Butterbeer Delight Fudge whisks Harry Potter fans into a nostalgic world of sweet wizardry. Creamy caramel notes and butterscotch essence blend seamlessly, inviting you to savor a spellbinding treat straight from Hogsmeade’s enchanting shelves.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients:

  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 11 oz (311 grams) butterscotch chips
  • ½ cup (113 grams) light brown sugar, packed
  • ¾ cup (170 grams) butter
  • 7.5 oz (213 grams) jar of marshmallow creme

Extracts and Liquid:

  • ½ cup (120 milliliters) half and half
  • 1 ½ teaspoons rum extract
  • 1 ½ teaspoons imitation butter extract

Instructions

  1. Prepare a foundational base by carefully draping aluminum foil inside an 8×8 inch pan, ensuring complete coverage and applying a light mist of non-stick spray to facilitate effortless fudge removal.
  2. In a sturdy saucepan, amalgamate butter, half and half, marshmallow creme, granulated sugar, and brown sugar, whisking meticulously until ingredients form a harmonious blend.
  3. Position the saucepan over medium thermal intensity, continuously stirring the concoction as it transitions into a rolling boil. Maintain constant vigilance, allowing the mixture to bubble vigorously for precisely five minutes.
  4. Extinguish the heat source and introduce rum extract, butter extract, and butterscotch chips into the molten mixture. Stir with deliberate, smooth motions until butterscotch chips dissolve completely, creating a uniform, glossy texture.
  5. Delicately cascade the fudge mixture into the prepared pan, using gentle tapping motions to establish a level surface and eliminate potential air pockets.
  6. Permit the fudge to rest at ambient temperature momentarily before transferring to the refrigerator, allowing it to solidify into a delectable, creamy confection.

Notes

  • Precision matters when measuring ingredients, as baking is a science that requires accurate proportions for perfect fudge texture.
  • Constant stirring prevents sugar from burning and ensures a smooth, creamy consistency throughout the cooking process.
  • Temperature control is crucial – medium heat helps ingredients melt and combine without scorching, creating a silky fudge base.
  • Rum and butter extracts elevate the classic butterscotch flavor, delivering a magical Harry Potter-inspired taste experience.
  • Chilling transforms the mixture from a liquid state to a firm, sliceable dessert, so patience during cooling is key to achieving the ideal fudge structure.
  • Foil lining with non-stick spray makes removing and cutting the fudge a breeze, ensuring clean, picture-perfect squares.
