Ingredients
- 2 cups light brown sugar
- 5 ounces evaporated milk
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon maple flavoring
- 1 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
Instructions
- 1. Butter an 8x8-inch or 9x9-inch square pan. Line with parchment paper or foil, and butter that; set aside.
- 2. In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, evaporated milk and butter. Bring to a full boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat slightly (no lower than medium-low) and boil for an additional 10 minutes, stirring constantly.
- 3. Remove from the heat and stir in the powdered sugar, vanilla extract and maple flavoring. Transfer the mixture to a standing mixer (or use a hand mixer) and beat the fudge on medium speed until thick and glossy - about 3 minutes. Fold in the walnuts and pour the mixture into the prepared pan.
- 4. Let the mixture cool to room temperature, then cover tightly and refrigerate overnight. Slice the fudge into 1-inch squares and serve. (Fudge can be stored at room temperature in an airtight container.)
- Note: You can find the maple flavoring in the baking aisle where the vanilla extracts are.
