Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 premade refrigerated pie crust
  • 1 1/2 cups pecans toasted and chopped
  • 1/2 cup light corn syrup
  • 1/3 cup light brown sugar packed
  • 1/3 cup evaporated milk
  • 3 cups white chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch salt

Equipment

  • 8x8 inch baking dish
  • medium saucepan
  • spatula
  • baking sheet
  • oven
  • refrigerator

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Unroll the premade pie crust and fit it into the bottom of an 8×8-inch baking dish. Poke a few holes with a fork to prevent bubbling. Bake for 10 minutes or until lightly golden.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine corn syrup, brown sugar, evaporated milk, white chocolate chips, and maple syrup. Heat over medium, stirring often, until smooth and melted.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract and a pinch of salt until fully incorporated.
  4. Pour the warm fudge mixture over the baked crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  5. Sprinkle toasted, chopped pecans evenly over the top. Continue chilling for at least 6 hours or overnight until set.
  6. Once firm, cut into 16 squares. Serve cold or at room temperature for a melt-in-your-mouth texture.

Notes

Tips:
• Use toasted pecans for extra crunch and flavor.
• Chill overnight for clean, firm slices.
• Substitute dark or milk chocolate chips for a richer version.
• Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, or freeze up to 2 months.
