Cream Fudge, or Sucre a La Creme Canadien, is a classic Canadian dessert that is often enjoyed during the holiday season. It is similar to traditional fudge in texture and flavor, but with the addition of icing sugar, it becomes creamier and smoother. Cream Fudge is typically cut into small squares and served as a sweet treat after meals or with coffee or tea. The recipe has been passed down through generations of Canadian families, making it a beloved dessert across the country.

Instructions

1.	In a large pot, combine brown sugar, evaporated milk, and butter. Heat over medium heat and stir constantly until mixture boils.
2.	Reduce heat to low and cook for approximately 10 minutes, stirring constantly, until mixture reaches the soft-ball stage (235°F/115°C) on a candy thermometer.
3.	Remove from heat and add sifted icing sugar. Beat until mixture thickens and resembles fudge.
4.	Pour mixture into a greased 8x8 inch pan.
5.	Let cool for 20 minutes, then sprinkle with chopped walnuts (optional) and cut into small squares.

HEALTH & BENEFITS

While Cream Fudge is not particularly healthy, it can be enjoyed as an occasional treat as part of a balanced diet.
Icing sugar is made from refined sugar and therefore contains no nutritional value. However, brown sugar, while still a form of sugar, contains trace amounts of minerals such as magnesium, calcium, and potassium.
