Best 5 Creamy Rich Walnut Fudge Recipes

BUTTERY RICH PENUCHE FUDGE RECIPE - ORIGINAL METHOD

Steps:

• Line a 8×8-inch square baking pan with parchment, leaving 2-inches overhang on two opposing sides. Make sure to fold the paper into the corners of the pan.
• In a heavy saucepan over medium-low flame, heat brown sugar, white sugar, corn syrup, milk, butter, and salt to 242°F (117°C) while stirring occasionally to prevent the bottom from scorching. Cooking should take anywhere from 20-25 minutes.
• Immediately pour penuche into the bowl of a stand mixer. Add vanilla extract. Beat on medium for 4 minutes, until fudge is thick and smooth. Lower speed to low and add walnuts or other chopped nuts, and beat just a few times until the nuts are dispersed evenly into the penuche. Turn off the mixer.
• Using a spatula greased with butter, spread penuche fudge into the square pan lined with parchment. Smooth out the top with a spatula.
• Refrigerate for 1 hour before cutting. If refrigerated, penuche will keep in a sealed container for up to a week. For maximum freshness, don't cut until ready to serve.

FANTASY FUDGE

Steps:

• Toast the walnuts in a medium saute pan over medium heat, tossing frequently, until darkened and fragrant, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board to cool, then roughly chop.
• Line an 8-inch square cake pan with foil, leaving a 2-inch overhang on 2 sides. Coat lightly with cooking spray.
• Combine the chocolate and condensed milk in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is thick and smooth, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat. Add the marshmallow creme and butter and stir until completely combined and no streaks remain. Stir in the walnuts until evenly dispersed.
• Transfer the mixture to the prepared cake pan. Smooth with a rubber spatula into an even layer. Refrigerate until firm, 2 to 3 hours.
• Use the foil overhang to remove the fudge from the pan. Cut into small squares. The fudge can be refrigerated in an airtight container up to 5 days.
