EASY PENUCHE FUDGE RECIPE (BROWN SUGAR FUDGE)
A foolproof recipe for Penuche Fudge! It only takes a few minutes to put together this easy brown sugar fudge. It's similar to my favorite Chocolate Fudge recipe, but instead uses brown sugar and white chocolate. The texture of this fudge is where it's at! It just melts in your mouth!

Steps:
- Line an 8 or 9 inch square pan with aluminum foil or parchment paper. If you are using foil, coat with nonstick spray. Set aside.
- Prepare the ingredients you will need last, because you are going to be in a hurry later. Chop your white chocolate into small chunks for faster melting. Take the lid off your marshmallow creme and peel off all traces of the foil lining (so that you can microwave it later for easy scooping. Microwaving is optional). Set out your vanilla and salt.
- In a 3 quart HEAVY saucepan over medium high heat, melt 3/4 cup butter. Before it melts all the way, use your spoon or knife to rub the sides of the pot with butter, almost all the way to the top. This helps prevent sugar crystals from forming on the edge of the pan, which can cause your fudge to not come to the right temperature.
- Add 2/3 cup evaporated milk. Add 2 tablespoons corn syrup.
- Add 2 and 1/2 cups brown sugar to the center of the pot. Be sure to avoid getting sugar on the edge of the pan to avoid the sugar crystals that I mentioned before.
- Use a wooden spoon to stir slowly until the butter has melted completely and been fully incorporated.
- Bring to a full rolling boil over medium high heat, stirring constantly with a long wooden spoon. Once it starts boiling (that means bubbles coming up from the CENTER of the pot, not the edges of the pot), set a timer for 5 minutes and turn the heat down to medium so that you don't burn your fingers off--it should be at a rolling boil the full 5 minutes. Stir constantly. If you want to use a thermometer, boil until it reaches about 236 degrees F.
- When the timer goes off, remove from heat and immediately add the chopped white chocolate. Stir until the white chocolate has melted completely and there are no lumps. You will notice that if you stop stirring even for a few seconds, the fudge will start to harden, so work quickly.
- Take the lid off your marshmallow creme, remove all traces of foil, ignore the label that says "Do not microwave in jar," and microwave in the jar for about 20 seconds, until you see the marshmallow start to rise above the lip of the jar. (You don't need to microwave. It's just a hack to make it really easy to get the marshmallow out of the jar, which can be a pain.) Use a spatula to add all the marshmallow creme to the fudge and stir. You will notice that if you stop stirring even for a few seconds, the fudge will start to harden, so work quickly.
- Add 1 teaspoon vanilla and 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt to the fudge. Beat the fudge with your wooden spoon, scraping the bottom and sides well, until all the marshmallow has been incorporated and the fudge is an even light golden color with no streaks.
- (At this point, add chopped toasted nuts if you are into that. I haven't made it with nuts but I would guess between 2/3 cup to 3/4 cup chopped pecans will do ya.)
- Immediately pour into the prepared and lined square pan.
- Let cool to room temperature. This usually takes 3-5 hours depending on the temperature of your house. Once the fudge has had a half hour or so to cool, cover tightly with plastic wrap or a lid so it doesn't get dried out. You can refrigerate the fudge to speed up cooling, but let it come back to room temperature before attempting to slice it.
- When you are ready to serve, lift the parchment paper or foil out of the pan. Use a long chef's knife to make even slices. Store on the counter covered. Fudge will keep on the counter for about 3-5 days before getting dried out.
- You can freeze fudge! I do this every year for the holidays. Freeze in a block and allow to come to room temperature before slicing, or slice and arrange in a sealed container, then freeze. I prefer the latter, then I can just pop it out of the freezer and add pieces to the cookie plates I'm assembling.

Steps:
- In a medium saucepan, combine brown sugar, cream and butter. Stir until dissolved. Heat to between 234 and 240 degrees F (112 to 116 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a soft ball that flattens when removed from the water and placed on a flat surface. Remove from heat and stir vigorously until mixture loses its gloss, or process in a food processor 30 seconds. Quickly stir in vanilla and nuts and spread into a 9x9 inch dish. Chill before cutting into squares.

BROWN SUGAR FUDGE
I love this recipe for fudge. Nice and creamy texture. I like to double up on the nuts to take away from the sweetness. This fudge recipe has always worked for me as long as I boil for exactly 10 minutes and beat for exactly 5.

Steps:
- PREPARE:
- Prewarm the thermometer in hot water; use a 2-quart saucepan; butter the upper sides (inside) of the saucepan; measure all ingredients except the vanilla and optionals, and dump into the saucepan.
- Grease and if necessary, line a 5 X 10-inch pan.
- Fill glass with ice cubes and water and the sink with 1/2 inch of cold water.
- Dissolve the sugar, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, over low heat until the butter melts, the gritty sounds cease, and the spoon glides smoothly over the bottom of the pan.
- Increase the heat to medium and bring to a boil.
- Boil, after washing down any crystals that may have formed, with a pastry brush dipped in hot water from the thermometer bath, using as little water as possible.
- Introduce the prewarmed thermometer.
- Reduce the heat while keeping the fudge at a boil.
- Stir no more than necessary.
- Test the fudge mixture in the ice-cold water when the mixture thickens and bubbles become noisy.
- Ball, formed in ice water, should hold its shape until the heat from your had begins to flatten it and should be al dente ~- slightly chewy -- between 230 and 240 (110 and 115.5 degrees C.).
- Because of the molasses and brown sugar, it can ball at a lower temperature than some other fudges.
- Shock by placing the saucepan in the cold water in the sink.
- Seed by adding, without stirring, the vanilla.
- Then allow to cool.
- Stir when luke warm and "skin" forms on the top (110 degrees F./43.5 degrees C.).
- Return the thermometer to its hot water bath to soak clean.
- Stir the fudge thoroughly but not vigorously by hand, with an electric mixer, or with a food processor.
- Pause frequently to allow the fudge to react.
- Watch for the fudge to thicken, lose its sheen, and become lighter in color or streaked with lighter shade, give off some heat, suddenly stiffen.
- If mixing by had, the fudge will "snap" with each stroke; by mixer, mixer waves will become very distinct, by food processor, fudge will flow sluggishly back to the center when the processor is stopped.
- Add the optionals (1/2 Cup Chopped Nuts (walnuts, pecans, or hazelnuts (filberts)) before the fudge totally candies.
- Pour, score, and store when cool in an airtight container in the refrigerator or at room temperature.
- Recipe is easily doubled and can be frozen.
- VARIATIONS:
- HONEY BROWN SUGAR FUDGE: In Step 1, eleminate the unsweetened chocolate and replace the molasses with 1/4 cup of honey.
- The honey causes the fudge to ball at a higher temperature.
- CHOCOLATE HONEY BROWN SUGAR FUDGE: In Step 1, replace the heavy cream with light cream or evaporated milk and replace the molasses with 1/4 cup of honey.
- ORANGE BROWN SUGAR FUDGE: In Step 1, eleminate molasses, chocolate but add 1 Tbl corn syrup.
- In Step 6, add 1 Tbl grated orange zest, plus if you can get it, 1 tsp of pure orange extract.
- PEANUT BUTTER BROWN SUGAR FUDGE: In Step 1, eliminate the molasses and chocolate, replace the heavy cream with 1/4 cup of milk and 1/4 cup of creamy peanut butter.
- To intensify the peanut butter flavor, add 1/3 of a cup of salted peanuts in Step 9.
- PRALINE BROWN SUGAR FUDGE: In Step 1, eliminating the molasses is optional -- you'ss get a more Southern praline with it, a milder one without it--or compromise and use only 1 Tbls.
- Eliminate the chocolate.
- In Step 3, when the mixture begins to thicken, add 1 1/2 cups of pecan halves slowly so as not to break the boil or cool the mixture too quickly.

- In a medium saucepan, combine the brown sugar, granulated sugar, heavy cream, corn syrup, and salt and heat over medium heat, stirring to dissolve e the sugar. Insert a candy thermometer and cook, stirring, occasionally, until the mixture reaches 238°F (this is known as the soft ball stage: see Note), which will take about 10 to 15 minutes. Be careful that the mixture doesn’t boil up and over the sides over the pan, a little bubbling is fine.
- Add the butter and stir until melted and blended in, then remove the pan from the heat and let it stand without stirring at all until the mixture has cooled to lukewarm, about 120°F).
- Beat in the vanilla until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Fold in the nuts, if using. Pour the fudge into the prepared pan and let cool to room temperature. If your kitchen is quite warm, you might want to let it cool in the fridge.
