Sofia Talvik’s Xmas Calendar: #23

In the next to last episode of my Xmas Calendar, me and my hubby is making Christmas fudge. This might be a totally confusing episode for everyone who’s not Swedish as we’re making fun of a Swedish television show throughout the episode. I can’t really explain any further, but whenever you see the indication “in a funny voice” you’ll know we’re not totally serious … Here’s the fudge recipe for all of you that want to make it at home, with or without the funny voice:

Fudge

2 cups/dl of double cream

2 cups/dl white sugar

2 cups/dl sirup

scalded, finely chopped almonds

mix everything in a pan and cook until it’s 120°C (or 123° if you want a chewier fudge)

Sofia Talvik’s Xmas Calendar: #19

It’s Saturday! So when you’re preparing for that party or dinner that you’re looking forward to tonight, make sure you treat yourself to a real good drink. As we learned how to make our own Glühwein yesterday, I’m sure you have a batch in the fridge by now. So get that bottle out and make a real good ice cold Glühwein cocktail! Check out today’s episode and I’ll show you how!

Glühwein Cocktail

4cl cold red Glühwein
3cl Brandy
1 dl Cranberry juice

Shake with ice cubes until ice cold. Serve with a cinnamon stick!
