For those days when you need to rustle up a gift, this is perfect!You will also be able to find my recipes on BBCGoodFood from late June 2020.
150g White Chocolate,
3 cardamom pods, discard pod and grind seeds
450g Granulated Sugar
400ml Double Cream
50g Butter
1tsp Vanilla Extract
Method
Add your sugar,cream and butter to a heavy based saucepan. Keeping the heat low until the sugar has dissolved.
Once the sugar has dissolved, add your vanilla extract and turn up the heat. You will need a thermometer, as you need the mixture to bubble until it reaches 116 degrees celsius. This will take about 15 minutes. stir occasionally to stop the mixture from burning. If you do not reach 116, the mixture will not set, be patient.
Once you've reached the desired temperature, take off the heat and add the finely crushed up cardamom seeds, and your white chocolate. Stir until thoroughly combined.
Pour into a lined dish, approximately 20cmx20cm. Once cool, chop into cubes and enjoy.
