RUM AND RAISIN FUDGE
This fudge is a British recipe - it is similar to soft caramels but includes rum-soaked raisins. YUM. It's not the type of fudge that you get at American amusement parks. It is different, but JUST as GOOD! Demerara sugar is also known as cane sugar. (the coarse brown stuff, sometimes sold as "Sugar in the Raw")

Steps:
- Soak the raisins in the rum the day before making the fudge.
- Line a 20 x 20cm cake tin with baking parchment. Tip the sugar, cream, butter and glucose syrup into a large pan. Warm over a low heat to dissolve the sugar and melt the butter, stirring occasionally.
- When the sugar has dissolved, put a sugar thermometer in the mixture, making sure the end is completely covered by the syrup - if it's not, transfer the mixture to a smaller pan that's still large enough for the syrup to bubble. Turn up the heat to medium-high and bring the syrup to the boil, stirring occasionally to stop it catching. When the thermometer reaches 116C - or 'soft ball' stage, remove the pan from the heat.
- Leave the mixture to stand, undisturbed, for 5 mins, until the temperature drops to 110C, then stir in the vanilla bean paste, the plumped-up raisins and a good pinch of salt.
- Remove the thermometer, then vigorously beat the mixture with a wooden spoon, checking the temperature every minute or so until it drops again to about 60C. By this time, the mixture will be really thick and have lost its glossy shine. Take the thermometer out and continue beating the mixture for a few more minutes. This part is crucial as it helps create small sugar crystals that give the fudge its smooth, creamy texture.
- Quickly pour the fudge mixture into the prepared tin and smooth the surface using a spatula. Leave to cool overnight at room temperature - don't put it in the fridge, as it will become sticky and won't set properly. Cut into 36 bite-sized pieces. Will keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two months.

BOURBON (OR RUM) RAISINS
VelvetineNut asked me to post this--it's hardly a recipe and the quantities listed are estimates. The result is wonderful--plump juicy raisins that add incredible flavor to cakes, cookies, fudge, bread pudding, etc. And, there's a bonus--the resulting syrup is delicious. They keep forever and you can just keep adding raisins and/or liquor as needed. Prep time does not include the time you let the raisins soak.

Steps:
- Find a mason jar or other glass container with a tight-fitting lid.
- Place the raisins in the jar.
- Pour the bourbon (I use Maker's Mark)over the raisins--enough to cover them.
- Give them a shake and close up the jar.
- Let it sit in your cupboard for a few days (although after just a few hours the raisins will begin to plump), inverting the jar occasionally to make sure all the raisins are getting coated.
- Voila!
- For bourbon or dark rum, I suggest dark raisins.
- For white rum, I suggest golden raisins.
