Bro do you even gift?
Christmas is just around the corner and what better way to reward your loved ones and/or sneakily poison the ones you don't like so much (totally joking, or am I?) by giving them a homemade baked gift. Jokes aside, I always find it heartbreaking when food goes bad or is left out because there is too much or it can't last long enough.
Is there a solution you ask?
Is there anyway to stop this catastrophe? (We specially hate waste here at Brownie Please)
YES!! Yes, there is!! Just like there are Sales on Boxing, there too is a solution dear friends to our conundrum.
I call it a "No Commitment" gift.
You don't have to feed it or pet or even take it out for walks. No this baby can take care of itself.
With this principle the gift gives no pressure to the recipient who can delay its consumption while they plough through other gifts which require their immediate attention.
So to introduce this principle to y'all, I begin with sauce.
Because:
1. It has a shelf life of about a month
2. It must be in a container to be transported
3. It can be used by the recipient anyway they like
THEREFORE
Enjoy as you throw caution to the wind and revel in your newly formed philosophy to divulge yourself of commitment to food.
Today's recipe:
Fabulous Fudge Sauce
Ingredients:
125g butter
1 cup milk or dark dark chocolate (depending how rich you like it)
395ml condensed milk (If you are diet conscience and still reading: one, good on you and two, the skim condensed milk can be used without effecting the taste or texture)
Method:
1. Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over a medium heat.
2. Once the butter is lovely and liquid add in the chocolate and stir constantly to thoroughly mix them together.
3. Lovingly add in the condensed milk in a constant stream as you continue the stir the mixture. Stir and stir until it is all incorporated. The mixture should be heavenly gooey and thick. Thick like your cousin Dora who ate plastic pear and said it was delicious.
4. Once all incorporated, turn off the heat and decant into jars, bowls, cups, or your mouth - which ever is in your closest reach.
5. Enjoy as you give! Or keep some for yourself to test for 'quality control' over ice cream, brownies, cookies, pancakes, heck even pasta if you're outta tomato sauce!
