Maple Fudge with Walnuts
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup milk
3 tablespoons maple syrup
1 teaspoon light corn syrup
1/2 cup walnuts roughly chopped
2 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
In a pot, put the sugar, milk, maple butter, and corn syrup. Bring the
mixture to a boil and with a candy thermometer cook the mixture to 235�.
Remove from the heat and add the butter and vanilla. Let cool to 110�,
do not mix. Once it reaches 110�, add the walnuts and beat vigorously
until the fudge loses its gloss and gets thick. Pour mixture into a dish
lined with plastic wrap. Let cool until hard, turn out onto a cutting
board and cut into squares. |
