Ingredients:
1/4 cup butter, softened
1 tbsp maple syrup
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp maple extract
1/2 cup chopped toasted walnuts
8 oz melting candies, I used Hobby Lobby's brand "Make 'N Mold"
1-2 tsp of any flavorless odorless oil for thinning out the melting candies
Using a nut grinder, chop the walnuts. Place the walnuts on a parchment lined baking sheet and toast in the oven for 8-10 minutes at 350 degrees.
In a mixing bowl, add in the butter, maple syrup and powdered sugar. Give that a quick mix. It should look pebbly. Add in both extracts and mix until creamy. Add in the completely cooled toasted walnuts. Mix until completely combined.
Cover with foil or plastic wrap and place in the fridge to firm up for about 30 minutes.
Into a microwave safe bowl, melt the melting candies in the microwave for 1-2 minutes, stirring every 20 seconds or so.
If you think your chocolate is too thick, add in 1-2 tsp of oil.
Take the candy, dip the bottom into the chocolate, place it on a fork and cover the rest of the candy in chocolate by spooning chocolate over the candy. Gently shake off the excess chocolate. Using a toothpick, wipe off any excess chocolate from the bottom of the fork, take your fork to a piece of parchment paper and, with the same toothpick, carefully guide your candy off the fork and onto the parchment paper.
Let the chocolate completely set before handling.
To fancy up the candy, place the leftover chocolate into a piping bag, cut the tip off, and drizzle on some line with a back and forth motion.
Again, let the chocolate set before trying to handle. Store in the fridge and enjoy!

What about using real chocolate you have to temper? And dark chocolate? And using a truffle mold? Sorry, a lot of questions...
All good questions! Yes, if you'd prefer using regular chocolate and tempering it, milk or dark, that's totally fine. Whichever way you're more comfortable with, go that route. Yes, if you'd rather not dip the candy, and you have a mold on hand, most certainly you can use a truffle mold. Some beginners find tempering chocolate a bit challenging. In this video I give an easy beginner-friendly option just in case learning how to temper chocolate isn't what the viewer is looking for at that moment, but rather just a quick and easy way to make the candy. Thank you for your questions! 💖😊
@@JustAddMoreButter awesome! Thank you for your quick response, going to start right now!!!! I have some Belgium dark chocolate and lots of molds. I'll let you know how they turn out 😁
Glad to be of help! 😊
Would coconut extract work in place of the maple extract?
If that's what you want, sure. I've never used coconut extract in this recipe, but it's worth a try if it's a favorite flavor.
Thanks for replying. I have maple syrup here but I don't want to buy maple extract for one recipe
I completely understand. I was in the same boat, end up caving and bought maple extract and then went on a recipe hunt for all things using maple extract to justify the purchase, haha! Happy Baking!! 😊🍪🎄⛄
How do I make it without nuts?
You can make it the same way as listed, just don't add in the nuts. 😊💖
