Ingredients

  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup heavy cream
  • ¾ cup butter unsalted
  • pinch salt
  • 7 ounces marshmallow cream
  • 11 ounces white chocolate chips
  • 2 teaspoons maple flavoring
  • ¾ cup walnuts Chopped

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine marshmallow cream, white chocolate morsels and maple flavoring. Set aside. (I put this in my electric mixing bowl with whisk attachment).
  2. In a large saucepan, combine sugar, heavy cream, butter and salt. Heat over medium high heat and bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Once boiling (a good rolling boil), continue boiling over medium high heat for 5 minutes (still stirring). After 5 minutes, remove from heat and pour over the marshmallow cream, white chocolate morsels and maple extract.
  3. Blend mixture for about 1-2 minutes until smooth (and white chocolate is melted). Fold in chopped walnuts.
  4. Pour into a parchment paper lined 8 or 9-inch baking dish. Refrigerate 4 hours or overnight. Cut into bite sized pieces and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. ENJOY.

Notes

  • Maple extract can also be used, but it won't give the fudge the rich color (it will leave your fudge a creamy white). Don't use maple syrup as it's not concentrated enough.
  • You can freeze this fudge too! Double wrap the fudge in freezer bags (or an airtight freezer safe container) to preserve its freshness. Let frozen fudge thaw in the fridge overnight before eating.
