Slow Cooker Lotus Biscoff Fudge Recipe - What the Redhead said (1)

Lotus Biscoff biscuits are such a classic flavour – they taste like nothing else and once you’ve had a Biscoff biscuit you’ll always remember that flavour. They’re one of Dave’s favourite biscuits so I thought I’d give a Slow Cooker Biscoff Fudge a try – and it may be our favourite fudge flavour so far!

How do you make Lotus Biscoff Fudge slow cooker recipe?

You can make this Lotus biscuit fudge recipe in any slow cooker or crock pot and it only takes about 30 minutes cooking time – which is quicker than other fudges we’ve made. Plus, making Carnation Biscoff Fudge with condensed milk is so much easier than making it the traditional way with cream and sugar. I’m sticking to condensed milk fudge!

You stir the mixture every 10-15 minutes and as soon as it gets really thick and fudgy it’s ready to be taken off the heat, add delicious Biscoff cookies pieces, and pour itinto a baking tin to set. We’ve been usingan eight inch square panbut you could use a bigger pan for a thinner fudge.

Although we use an eight inch square baking pan we have also at times made fudge in a loaf tin or brownie pan. You can really use any dish you have to hand and it will be thicker or thinner depending on the size of the tin. You can then simply vary the way you cut the fudge to give delicious, bite size pieces.

Can you make this Lotus Biscoff Fudge recipe without white chocolate?

For this recipe we use a combination of milk chocolate and white chocolate but if you wanted you could just use all milk chocolate, it would just give a slighter darker fudge finish – and would make it into a 4 ingredient Biscoff Fudge instead of 5! However you make it, this slow cooker chocolate fudge is delicious.

Can you make this Lotus fudge in the microwave?

Many people make fudge in the microwave but I much prefer the control I have when I make it in the crock pot or slow cooker.

Then follow the instructions as per the recipe below.

Can you make chocolate slow cooker fudge with evaporated milk?

Our slow cooker fudge works because sweetened condensed milk has a really high sugar content, needed to create that beautifully rich fudge. Evaporated milk isn’t the same, doesn’t have that sugar content and isn’t thick enough to help the fudge thicken and set. You can’t use evaporated milk in these recipes – so get some condensed milk instead.

Do you cook slow cooker fudge high or low temperature?

We always cook fudge on a high slow cooker temperature setting and it takes around 40 minutes in total. You could make it on the low setting but it would take longer and would still need to be stirred regularly. You may as well keep the slow cooker on high and be done in under an hour!

When cooking, is the slow cooker fudge lid on or off?

When making slow cooker fudge, you need to remove the slow cooker lid otherwise excess moisture would be retained in the slow cooker pot and the fudge wouldn’t thicken as it needs to.
