LINDA'S EASY MAPLE FUDGE



Linda's Easy Maple Fudge image

I found two different Maple Fudge recipes but neither one was 'just right'. This is a combination of the two. I make this for Christmas every year, one batch with lots of walnuts & one without for my non- nutty friends & family. I make only at Christmas because we just cannot resist this fudge and it keeps it special. You can add...

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 c brown sugar, light
1 c butter, cold
6 oz evaporated milk
1/2 tsp maple flavoring
2 c powdered sugar
1/2 - 1 c walnut pieces

Steps:

  • 1. Over medium high heat, bring butter, brown sugar and carnation milk to a boil.
  • 2. Reduce heat to medium, simmer for 7 minutes, stirring constantly.
  • 3. Remove from heat. Add the maple extract and give a quick mix.
  • 4. Add the powdered sugar 1 cup at a time and beat with an electric or hand mixer for 2 minutes.
  • 5. Stir in nuts by hand if using. Pour into an 8x8 or 9x9 pan, lightly buttered. Cool.
  • 6. This makes a large batch of fudge and in the 8x8 or 9x9 pan it is quite thick, so cut into small squares. I chop the walnuts fairly large but they can be any size you prefer.

Tips:

  • Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan to prevent scorching.
  • Stir the fudge constantly to prevent it from crystallizing.
  • If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the fudge by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If it forms a soft ball, it is ready.
  • To prevent the fudge from sticking to the pan, grease it lightly with butter or cooking spray.
  • If the fudge is too thick, add a little bit of milk or cream.
  • If the fudge is too thin, cook it for a few minutes longer.
  • Store the fudge in an airtight container in a cool, dry place.

Conclusion:

Making maple fudge is a delicious and easy treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a sweet and creamy dessert that is perfect for any occasion. So next time you're looking for a special treat, give Linda's Easy Maple Fudge a try. You won't be disappointed!
