What Gives This Maple Flavor?

The maple flavor is what makes this fudge so delicious. The flavor is a natural sweetener. The maple flavor comes from the extract the recipe calls for which is pure maple extract.

Can I Make This With Pecans Instead?

The walnuts in this fudge recipe go very well with the flavors. However, you can choose to use pecans if you would like. You can also use other types of nuts as well.

  1. Sandra says:

    Do you use real white chocolate or do you mean the white almond bark that you can purchase in large squares for the fudge?

  2. Mary says:

    I love maple flavor! These come out a typical fudge. My Aunt used to make fudge and it was dry, therefore that is my preference. Any idea on how to make this recipe dry? Thanks!

    1. Jill says:

      Hi Mary. To get a firmer texture for this type of fudge I would try using less condensed milk and stirring the ingredients until they start to firm up before pouring in the pan.

  3. Jerri Starrett says:

    About how many ounces of white chocolate?

    1. Jill says:

      The amounts are in the recipe card.

    2. Susan Best says:

      I’m thinking they used white chocolate chips??? Can’t really measure bars by cups so I think it’s unclear too.

    3. Susan Best says:

      Jerry, I want to know too. Would it be 24 oz because 3×8 =24, 8oz in a cup?

      1. Jill says:

        Hi Susan. Yes, the 3 cups would equate to 24 ounces whether you are using chips or bars.
