  1. For the sugar-free condensed milk, put the cream, 3 tbsp butter and powdered allulose in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. 1:04
  2. Turn the heat to low and simmer for about 30 minutes, until it has reduced to roughly 14 oz (400 g) and coats the back of a spoon. 1:26
  3. Use it straight away, or pour it into a jar, cool 30 minutes at room temperature and refrigerate (it keeps 2–3 weeks). 2:16
  4. Line an 8-inch (20 cm) square dish with baking paper and wipe the paper with a little oil. 4:45
  5. Put the condensed milk in a saucepan with the chocolate chips, 1 tbsp butter and salt. Stir constantly over low heat, lifting the pan off the heat now and then so the chocolate doesn't seize, until smooth. 5:24
  6. Take it off the heat, stir in the vanilla, then pour straight into the dish and smooth the top. 6:28
  7. Chill for at least 4 hours (overnight is best) until firm, then cut into 32 squares with a sharp knife. 6:44

Tip. For nutty fudge, stir in 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans with the vanilla. Keep the fudge in the fridge.

Vitamin A8%

74 µg a serve, mostly from heavy whipping cream (84%). Keeps eyes, skin and the immune system healthy. Orange vegetables and dark greens give beta-carotene, which the body turns into vitamin A.

Iron5%

0.8 mg a serve, mostly from sugar-free chocolate chips (98%). Carries oxygen in your blood. Iron from plants absorbs better with vitamin C in the same meal — lemon, tomato or capsicum.

Magnesium3%

12 mg a serve, mostly from sugar-free chocolate chips (91%). Takes part in hundreds of reactions — energy, muscles, nerves, blood sugar and bones. Nuts, seeds, legumes and whole grains are good sources.

Omega-33%

0.1 g a serve, mostly from heavy whipping cream (85%). Omega-3 fats support the heart and brain. Oily fish give EPA and DHA; walnuts, flax, chia and canola give ALA, which the body converts only a little.

Zinc2%

0.2 mg a serve, mostly from sugar-free chocolate chips (83%). Needed for immunity, wound healing, taste and growth. Meat, seafood, legumes, seeds and whole grains supply it.

Potassium1%

50 mg a serve, mostly from sugar-free chocolate chips (68%). Balances sodium to help control blood pressure and keeps muscles and nerves working. Beans, potatoes, leafy greens and fruit are rich sources.

Calcium1%

15 mg a serve, mostly from heavy whipping cream (68%). Builds bones and teeth and helps muscles and nerves work. Dairy, calcium-set tofu, sardines with their bones and some greens supply it.

Vitamin D1%

0.1 µg a serve, mostly from heavy whipping cream (77%). Helps you absorb calcium for bones and supports muscles. Few foods have much — oily fish, eggs, UV-exposed mushrooms, fortified milks. Sunlight is the main source.

Vitamin E1%

0.2 mg a serve, mostly from heavy whipping cream (77%). An antioxidant that protects cell membranes. Nuts, seeds and plant oils such as olive oil are the main sources.

Vitamin K1%

0.6 µg a serve, mostly from heavy whipping cream (77%). Needed for blood clotting and bones. Leafy greens and herbs are very rich in it. If you take warfarin, keep your intake steady and talk to your doctor.

Vitamin B121%

0 µg a serve, mostly from heavy whipping cream (90%). Keeps nerves and blood cells healthy. Found almost only in animal foods and fortified foods (some plant milks, nutritional yeast), so vegans need a reliable source.

Selenium1%

0.5 µg a serve, mostly from heavy whipping cream (96%). Part of the body's antioxidant enzymes and needed for thyroid hormones. Seafood, eggs, meat and Brazil nuts are rich sources.

Vitamin C0%

0.1 mg a serve, mostly from heavy whipping cream (100%). An antioxidant needed for collagen, immunity and iron absorption. Long cooking destroys some, so raw herbs, citrus and capsicum help.

Folate0%

0.7 µg a serve, mostly from heavy whipping cream (92%). Needed to make DNA and new cells — especially important before and in early pregnancy. Legumes and leafy greens are rich sources.

Vitamin B60%

0 mg a serve, mostly from heavy whipping cream (100%). Helps turn food into energy and make brain messengers. Chickpeas, fish, poultry, potatoes and bananas are good sources.
