Amarula is a South African liquer, made from the fruit of the Marula tree (indigenous to southern Africa), cream and sugar. The silky, smoothe, lusciously creamy texture and the comforting sweetness of Amarula gives this fudge recipe its unique flavour. Follow these 5 steps using only 5 ingredients to make this quick, easy and boozy African inspired fudge! The peanuts add a surprisingly crunchy savory element, contrasting with the soft fudge which is ideal to give away as a homemade gift to any sweettooth.
