Preparation

Step 1

Place 1/3 cup butter, cocoa and vanilla in small bowl. Place 1/3 cup butter, walnuts and maple flavoring in separate small bowl. Set bowls aside.

Combine sugar, evaporated milk, marshmallow cream and 1/4 cup butter in 2-quart saucepan. Stir constantly over medium heat until mixture boils. Boil and stir until teaspoon of mixture dropped in cold water forms a soft ball, about 4 minutes.

Pour half of cooked mixture into each reserved bowl. Blend mixtures until butter melts. Spoon mixtures alternately into greased and foil-lined 8-inch-square pan. Swirl gently with spatula. Cool at room temperature until set, about 1 hour.

Cut into 9 or 12 squares. Store well-sealed in refrigerator.
