Holiday Goodies

Around this time of year it seems our {newish} neighborhood 
goes all out giving each other yummy baked goods.
I learned last year that waiting to the last minute means being RUSHED so,
I already have my neighbors treats ready to go.
This is one of the treats in our little tin of temptation.

Maple Nut Fudge

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2/3 cup NESTLE® CARNATION® Evaporated Milk
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups miniature marshmallows
  • 1 (12 ounce) package NESTLE® TOLL HOUSE® Premier White Morsels
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons maple flavored extract
  • 50 walnut halves or pieces

Directions

  1. LINE 13 x 9-inch baking pan with foil.
  2. COMBINE butter, evaporated milk, sugar and salt in medium, heavy-duty saucepan. Bring to a full rolling boil, stirring constantly, over medium heat. Boil, stirring constantly, for 4 1/2 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
  3. STIR in marshmallows, morsels, nuts and maple flavoring. Stir vigorously for 1 minute or until marshmallows are melted. Pour into prepared baking pan. On top of fudge, place nut halves in rows spacing about 1/2 inch apart. Press into fudge; refrigerate until firm. Cut into squares with 1 nut half per square. 

Enjoy the holidays with this yummy twist on fudge...one of my favorite flavors!
