I'll give this a try....my usually lovely tablet does not work well out here in the heat.

I took a huge tupperware box to friends in Canada a few years back (obviously not made by me!) and it became a star attraction with everyone who visited having a try. One of my friends neighbours, who is a fitness instructor and ultra healthy thought it was the most divine thing ever. I wish I'd had a camera when she discovered exactly what was in it - I thought she was going to through up at the thought of how many calories she'd just eaten!

The thing with stuff like this, just like fudge is it is so sweet and rich you tend not to be able tom eat a huge amount at a time.
I have some yummy baileys/chocolate fudge made from a recipe off here I think (or it may be a nigella one lol). With good quality dark choc and the baileys kick it is so sweet and rich I keep it in the fridge and have a small peice when I need a sugar hit.

If I had a cheap bar of chocolate I might sit in front of the TV and eat the lot, but something rich like this I can be satisfied with a bit and make it last-so in a way more healthy as you space it out (at least thats what I tell myself rofl)

Thanks scottishminnie - LOVE tablet. Whenever I've tried to make it, it's a sludgy mess I will try this!

Is there any taste difference with the use of the evaporated milk? I have a good recipe I found online a few years ago (has good pictures...) which uses condensed milk and only time I've had problems with it is when I moved house changing from electric hob to gas!

Hope everyone remembers to brush their teeth afterwards... a delightful, devilish treat!

Does anyone know how long tablet lasts (if well-hidden from human predators).

A long time, sugar being the main ingredient, and sugar being a preservative.

Ohhh yum... I love this stuff and have just made up a batch. It is divine, I think I might need to make some more! Thanks so much OP, this is a super-easy 'debbie-proof' recipe!
