Vegan fudge 😊

This is my attempt at vegan fudge (with oat milk and plant butter) 🌱. Tried both maple and chocolate 🍁🍫.

Both maple and chocolate use:
½ cup of sugar/maple per ¼ cup of vegan milk; the same ratio as non vegan fudge.
There is 1-2 tbsp of vegan butter per ½ cup of sugar as well.

I used the same technique as people use with classic fudge: bring the sugar/maple and milk (+/- cocoa) to a temperature of 240F, then take it off the heat and add the butter. As it cools, stir vigorously 🪇 then let it set 🛌.

Both turned out rich and sweet, albeit a bit granular and dense.

To replicate the texture that people get with non vegan, I tried adding more of the plant butter, but it's like it saturates: the fat at some point just doesn't absorb and it never improved the texture. I wonder if adding some protein may help it develop an airier structure 🤔? Future projects.

If anybody has had any success I would appreciate any advice for improvement, although I do think these were a success. Just always room for improvement 🧗‍♀️😊😊
