1. Begin by taking a deep breath, and then combine that lovely milk with the sugar and a whisper of baking soda. You’ll want a medium flame to start this dance, stirring with love and patience until you see those first bubbles of joy – yes, that’s the boil we’re aiming for!
2. Keep that arm moving! Stir like you’re painting a masterpiece, until the mixture thickens, and oh – see that color change to a gentle brown? That’s the fudge telling you it’s almost ready. It’s a test of endurance, my friends, but all good things in life need time – expect to spend about an hour or more in this step.

3. As you turn off the heat, whisper a merci to your fudge. Let it cool just a tad, and give it a few more stirs – it’s like giving it a goodnight kiss, making it even thicker and more irresistible.
4. Now, grab that butter – not with your hands, silly! Use those spoons to grease up a flat surface and lovingly pour your fudge onto its resting place.
