MAPLE FUDGE, WITH MAPLE SYRUP FLAVOR
I have recipes of Maple Fudge that are old time recipes and some that are quick and easy to prepare. Let's give these a try, they sure are delicious.
MAPLE FUDGE
8" square buttered pan 3/4 cup light cream 2 cups real maple syrup 1 Tbls. clear corn syrup 1 tsp. vanilla 1 cup chopped walnuts (or chopped black walnets)
Combine cream, corn syrup, and maple syrup in a sauce pan. Bring to a boil, always stirring. Then continue without stirring, till temp reaches 234-240 degrees. To test, drop a little bit into cold water, and when it forms a soft ball when removed from the water, it's time to take it off of the stove. Let it cool till lukewarm. Use your mixer to beat it till it thickens and loses its gloss. Add your vanilla and nuts to mixture. Pour into your buttered pan. Cool; cut when firm.
This recipe is called Panocha (Pa-nu-cha) and it tastes alot like maple. This is what the candy store call maple fudge. I read on the internet that this is a Mexican candy. Not much information about this type of fudge. I just know that it is very delicious.
