Ingredients

  • 1/4 Cup + 1 teaspoon Unsalted butter ,seperated
  • 2 Cups Light brown sugar ,packer
  • 1 Cup Sugar
  • 3/4 Cup Heavy cream
  • 2 Tablespoons Light corn syrup
  • 1/8 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 Cup Chopped walnuts (optional)

Instructions

  • Line a 9-in.-square pan with aluminum foil; grease foil with 1 teaspoon butter.
  • In a large heavy saucepan, combine sugars, milk, corn syrup and salt. Bring to a rapid boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Cook, without stirring, until a candy thermometer reads 234° (soft-ball stage). Remove from heat. Add vanilla and remaining butter to pan (do not stir).
  • Cool, without stirring, to 110°, about 40 minutes. Beat with a spoon until fudge just begins to thicken. Add walnuts; continue beating until fudge becomes very thick and just begins to lose its sheen (about 10 minutes total). Immediately spread into prepared pan. Place a piece of wax paper on top and cool completely.
  • Using foil, lift fudge out of pan. Remove foil; cut fudge into 1-in. squares. Store between layers of waxed paper in airtight containers.
