Yield 24 pieces

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup evaporated milk
1 cup light brown sugar, packed
1 cup white sugar
3/4 cup unsalted butter
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup Irish Cream liqueur
2 1/4 cups icing sugar, sifted
1/2 cup macadamia nuts

Steps:

  • Grease an 8-inch square pan and line with parchment paper so that it hangs over the sides. Stir evaporated milk, brown sugar, white sugar, butter and salt in a heavy-bottomed saucepot. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring often, and cook until 238 °F (use a candy thermometer to gauge). Remove from heat, stir in vanilla and Irish Cream and scrape into a bowl or mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. With the mixer on low speed or electric beaters, add in the icing sugar in three additions, mixing well after each addition. Stir in macadamia nuts. Scrape fudge into prepared pan and let cool completely before slicing.
