TO MAKE THE FUDGE
*Place the white chocolate in a heatproof bowl.
*Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat.
*Add the condensed milk and cook, stirring constantly, for 2-3 minutes or until mixture is hot (be careful not to burn the mixture as it can easily catch on the base of the pan).
*Pour mixture over the white chocolate.
*Add vanilla and stir gently until chocolate melts.

*Pour over base.
*Place in fridge for 2-3 hours or until firm.
TO MAKE CARAMEL

*Stir the sugar, water and glucose in a saucepan over low heat for 5 minutes or until the sugar dissolves.
*Increase heat to high and bring to the boil.
*Boil, without stirring, brushing down the side of the pan occasionally with a wet pastry brush, for 12-15 minutes or until golden.
*Remove caramel from the heat.
*Carefully stir the cream into the caramel.
*Return mixture to medium heat, and cook, stirring constantly, for 1-2 minutes or until smooth.
*Set aside for 30 minutes to cool slightly.
*Stir in the butter until melted and well combined.
*Pour over the fudge.
*Place in fridge for 3 hours or until firm.
*Place the milk chocolate and oil in a small microwave-safe bowl.
*Cook, stirring every 30 seconds, on high for 1 1/2 minutes or until smooth.
*Spread evenly over the caramel to cover.
*Place in the fridge for 20 minutes to set.
*Remove from the pan and use a hot sharp knife to cut into fingers.
