Old Fashioned Butter Pecan Fudge
Butter Pecan is my very favorite flavor of ice cream, so naturally it’s my favorite kind of fudge, too!
It’s a flavor that pairs perfectly with Apple Crisp , Pumpkin Pecan Cobbler , Peach Cobbler , or Apple Pie Bars ! Or, you could just eat a bite size burst of my favorite creamy, sweet, buttery flavor in a piece of this Butter Pecan Fudge.
This fudge is a great gift idea for the holiday’s, too. You could either gift it by itself or put it on a tray with some of my other favorite candy like Nutty Toffee Crackers , Pecan Pralines , Candied Pecans , or Mini Pecan Pies !

What You’ll Need
3/4 cup Pecans, Chopped
1/2 cup Butter
1/2 cup Brown Sugar
1/2 cup Sugar
1/2 cup Whipping Cream
1/2 tsp Salt
1 tsp Vanilla
2 cups Powdered Sugar

How to Make Butter Pecan Fudge
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Sprinkle 3/4 cup chopped pecans on a cookie sheet and bake for 5-10 minutes. You’ll know they are done when you can smell a nutty aroma.
Line a 8 x 8 pan with parchment paper.
Add 1/2 cup butter, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup sugar, and 1/2 cup whipping cream to a sauce pan. Melt over medium heat.
Once melted, bring the mixture to a boil. Boil for 5 minutes without stirring.
Remove from the heat and let cool for 10 minutes.
Stir in 1/2 tsp salt and 1 tsp vanilla.
Then stir in 2 cups powdered sugar and fold in toasted pecans.
Spoon the mixture into the lined pan and let set for 2 hours.
