Ingredients

  • 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Directions

  1. Prepare a 9x9-inch baking pan by lining it with aluminum foil and greasing it lightly with butter.

  6. Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly using a spatula.
  7. Allow the fudge to cool at room temperature until set, approximately 3-4 hours.
  8. Once cooled and set, lift the fudge out of the pan using the foil. Peel off the foil and cut the fudge into small squares.
