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.
