Instructions for Maple Fudge
Place all ingredients – except the nuts, butter and chocolate – in a heavy saucepan. Stir gently until the mixture comes to a boil, then continue to cook without stirring until it reaches 240° F (116° C). - Cool slightly, add the white chocolate and butter and let them melt, then stir until well blended. Divide mixture into three parts. Stir the chopped walnuts into one portion. Stir the maple flakes into another portion, reserving some as garnish for the top. Leave the last portion plain. Pour each mixture into a mould and let harden in a cool place.
