BLACK AND WHITE FUDGE
Recipe from Odense. Marzipan is the surprise layer that separates the dark chocolate fudge from white chocolate fudge with the rich flavor of almonds. Extremely rich and what an impressive presentation! The three hour cook time = the time to chill.

Steps:
- Butter an 8-inch square pan.
- Lightly dust work surface with powdered sugar. Fold marzipan in half and press into a flat square. Roll into a 9" x 9" square. Using the bottom of the pan as a template, cut out square of marzipan to match pan dimensions. (Don't worry if it's not perfect.) Set aside.
- In a double boiler (or in a bowl over a pan of barely simmering water) combine white chocolate chips, 1/2 cup condensed milk and 3 tablespoons butter.
- Stir until chips are melted and mixture is well blended. Pour into pan. Immediately top with the marzipan square, lightly pressing into chocolate.
- In the same double boiler (or in a bowl over a pan of barely simmering water) combine semisweet chocolate chips, remaining can of condensed milk and 3 tablespoons butter.
- Stir until chips are melted and mixture is well blended. Spread over marzipan layer. Cover and refrigerate 3 hours. (As a side note, I think it's great to make yourself a cup of hot tea with the boiling water from the double boiler, instead of just dumping it.).
- Just before serving, cut into 1 inch squares.
BLACK AND WHITE FUDGE
Steps:
- 1) Line a 9x9 metal pan with wax paper. First line the bottom of the pan and up over the side with paper making sure it overlaps the edges. Smooth out the bottom and the edges. Now, turn the pan 90 degrees and repeat. 2) In a large sauce pan melt together the chocolate chips, 1/4 Cup of unsalted butter, salt and 2 Cups of the milk. Remove from heat and stir in 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract. 3) In a small heavy saucepan melt together the white chocolate chips, remaining milk and 1/2 tablespoon butter. Remove from heat and add 1/2 tablespoon of vanilla extract. 4) Pour the chocolate mixture into prepared pan smoothing out the top to make it level. Drop it a few times on your counter about 2 inches from the surface to level it out and remove any bubbles. 5) Dab white chocolate randomly on chocolate. 6) Take a knife and gently swirl white chocolate in the chocolate making sure not to mix it in. 7) Place in refrigerator for 4 hours. 8) Carefully remove from pan and remove the wax paper. Cut into 1 inch squares and store in air tight container in refrigerator or freezer.
Tips:
- Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan: This will help to prevent the fudge from scorching.
- Don't overcook the fudge: The fudge is done when it reaches 234-238°F (112-114°C) on a candy thermometer.
- Let the fudge cool completely before cutting it: This will help to prevent the fudge from crumbling.
- Store the fudge in an airtight container in a cool, dry place: The fudge will keep for up to 2 weeks.
- Variations: You can add different flavors to the fudge, such as vanilla, chocolate, or mint. You can also add nuts, dried fruit, or candy.

Black and white fudge is a classic candy that is easy to make and always a hit. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious fudge that is perfect for any occasion. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give black and white fudge a try!
