Cómo preparar Caramel Walnut Fudge Bars
- **Prepare the pan:** Line a greased 13x9 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides to lift the bars out later. Grease the parchment paper.
- **Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).**
- **Make the brownie base:** In a medium saucepan, melt 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter over medium heat. Whisk in 1/2 cup (50g) unsweetened cocoa powder until smooth.
- **Remove from heat and mix wet ingredients:** Beat in 1 cup (200g) packed light brown sugar and 1 large egg until well combined.
- **Add dry ingredients:** Stir in 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- **Bake the base:** Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until edges are set and the center is slightly soft.
- **Cool completely:** Let the brownie base cool completely in the pan before adding the caramel topping.
- **Make the caramel topping:** In a medium saucepan, melt 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter over medium heat.
- **Combine sugars and syrup:** Add 1 cup (200g) packed light brown sugar and 1/2 cup (118ml) light corn syrup. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon.
- **Reach hard-ball stage:** Continue to boil, stirring frequently, until the mixture reaches the hard-ball stage (260°F/127°C on a candy thermometer).
- **Add cream and nuts:** Remove from heat and carefully stir in 1/2 cup (120ml) heavy cream and 1 cup (100g) chopped walnuts (or pecans/almonds).
- **Reach soft-ball stage:** Return to a boil and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture reaches the soft-ball stage (235-240°F/113-116°C on a candy thermometer).
- **Add rum (optional):** Remove from heat, let cool for 1 minute, and stir in 1 tablespoon of rum (optional).
- **Pour and spread:** Pour the caramel topping evenly over the cooled brownie base.
- **Chill:** Refrigerate, covered with foil, for at least 2 hours, or until completely firm.
- **Cut and serve:** Run a thin knife around the edges of the pan. Lift the bars out using the parchment paper overhang. Cut into 30 bars.
- **Store:** Store bars, separated by sheets of wax paper, in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
