Maple Fudge
3 cups brown sugar.
2 cups maple syrup.
1 cup of milk.
1/2 cup of water.
Butter the size of an egg.
1 cup English walnut meats, or hickory-nuts.
Boil the sugar and maple syrup till you can make it into a very soft ball
when you drop it in water; only half as hard as you boil molasses candy.
Then put in the milk, water, and butter, and boil till when you try in water
it makes quite a firm ball in your fingers.
Put in the nuts and take off the fire at once, and stir till it begins to
sugar.
Spread it quickly on buttered pans, and when partly cool mark in squares
with a knife.
