How to Make Maple Fudge
- In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine 1 cup of maple syrup and 1/2 cup of milk.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Clip a candy thermometer to the side of the pan and continue to boil until the mixture reaches the soft-ball stage (approximately 235°F/113°C).
- Carefully remove the saucepan from the heat and let the mixture cool slightly for about 3-5 minutes. Be cautious as the mixture will be very hot.
- Beat the mixture vigorously with a wooden spoon or electric mixer until it becomes creamy and loses its gloss. This takes about 5-7 minutes.
- Stir in 1/2 cup of your favorite chopped nuts (walnuts, pecans, or even peanuts work well).
- Pour the fudge mixture into an 8-inch buttered square pan. Use a spatula to spread the mixture evenly.
- Allow the fudge to cool completely and firm up at room temperature, or for faster cooling, place it in the refrigerator for about 30-60 minutes.
- Once firm, cut the fudge into squares.
- Store your delicious maple fudge in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for up to a week. Enjoy!
