How to Make 14 Minute Maple Candy
- In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups maple syrup, 1/4 cup heavy cream, and 2 tablespoons unsalted butter. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Once boiling, **reduce heat to medium-low** and continue to cook for exactly 9 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture reaches the soft-crack stage (235-240°F on a candy thermometer).
- Remove from heat and carefully stir in 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (or pecans, or your favorite nut!) and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Stir for 5 minutes to evenly distribute.
- Lightly butter an 8x8 inch baking pan. Pour the candy mixture into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Let cool completely at room temperature (about 30-45 minutes) before cutting into squares. Enjoy!
