Here is the video recipe. I just made this maple fudge recipe and wanted to put the full recipe here too. It's made with pure maple syrup, cream, and salted butter. I've also included the soft, grainy, and too-firm batches in the video so you can see them alongside the finished fudge. The bit I wanted to show up close is the beating. “Mix for 5–10 minutes” doesn't tell you what you're looking for. You want to see it turn lighter, lose its shine, and get thick like frosting. That's the moment to get it into the pan. The temperatures Cook the syrup to 112°C (234°F), then add the warm cream and continue to 115–116°C (239–241°F). After adding the butter off the heat, let the mixture cool to 43–45°C (109–113°F) before beating. Ingredients 720g (2¼ cups) pure maple syrup 227g (1 cup) 35% cooking cream, warmed 38g (2½ tbsp) salted butter, cut into pieces Makes 24 squares. You'll need a large saucepan, a candy thermometer, a hand mixer, and an 8½ × 4½-inch loaf pan. Step 1 — Prepare the pan Lightly spray the loaf pan with cooking spray, then line it with parchment paper. Have it ready before you start cooking. Step 2 — Cook the syrup and cream Heat the maple syrup in a large saucepan until it reaches 112°C (234°F). Add the warm cream without stirring. Continue cooking until the mixture reaches 115–116°C (239–241°F). Remove the saucepan from the heat. Add the butter pieces, again without stirring. Step 3 — Let it cool Place the saucepan in a cool water bath and let the mixture cool to 43–45°C (109–113°F). Use cool water, not ice-cold water. Step 4 — Beat the fudge Beat with a hand mixer on low speed for 1 minute. Increase to medium-high speed and beat for 5–10 minutes. Watch for the mixture to thicken, become lighter, and lose its shine. You're looking for a thick, frosting-like texture. The video shows this change so you can see what the mixture looks like when it's ready to transfer. Step 5 — Transfer and let it set Quickly transfer the mixture to the prepared pan. Tap the pan firmly on the counter to spread and level the fudge. Cover and let it set on the counter for about 2–3 hours. To speed it up, refrigerate for about 1 hour. Cutting and serving Cut into 24 squares and serve at room temperature for a smooth, melt-in-your-mouth texture.
