Penuche Fudge: A Sweet, Buttery Treat for Every Occasion

If you’re a fan of rich, melt-in-your-mouth fudges, then Penuche Fudge is a must-try! This delightful candy is a classic, especially in the fall and winter months when its smooth, caramel-like flavor is the perfect cozy indulgence. Penuche is a type of fudge that is made with brown sugar, butter, and milk, giving it a unique flavor compared to traditional chocolate fudges. The result is a soft, velvety treat that’s perfect for holidays, gatherings, or just when you need a sweet pick-me-up.

Here’s a simple, foolproof recipe that will guide you through the steps to make your own Penuche Fudge at home. Trust us, once you make this, you’ll be hooked!

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups packed brown sugar (light or dark)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick)
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional, for added crunch)
  • 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar (for the creamy texture)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Pan: Begin by lining an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper or lightly greasing it with butter. This will ensure that your fudge doesn’t stick and makes for easy cleanup.
  2. Cook the Brown Sugar Mixture: In a medium saucepan, combine the brown sugar, butter, and milk. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the butter has melted and the mixture is smooth. Once the butter is fully incorporated, bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
  3. Simmer the Fudge Mixture: Allow the sugar mixture to boil for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Be sure to watch carefully and avoid letting the mixture boil too vigorously, as it could burn. The goal is to thicken the mixture without overheating it.
  4. Add the Vanilla and Salt: After simmering for 5 minutes, remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the vanilla extract and salt. This step enhances the flavor of the fudge and adds a touch of sweetness and depth.
  5. Add the Powdered Sugar: Gradually stir in the powdered sugar, a little at a time, until it’s completely incorporated and the mixture becomes thick and creamy. The powdered sugar will help set the fudge and create its signature smooth texture.
  6. Optional Add-ins: If you want to add nuts for extra texture and flavor, now’s the time! Gently fold in the chopped pecans or walnuts into the fudge mixture.
