This fudge is easy to make and very delicious. Enjoy this with your loved ones. For best results be sure to use a candy thermometer.
Recipe Ingredients
- 2 cups white sugar
- ½ cup cocoa
- 1 cup milk
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Cooking Directions
- 1 Grease an 8x8 inch square baking pan. Set aside.
- 2 Combine sugar, cocoa and milk in a medium saucepan. Stir to blend, then bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat and simmer. Do not stir again.
- 3 Place candy thermometer in pan and cook until temperature reaches 238 degrees F(114 degrees C). If you are not using a thermometer, then cook until a drop of this mixture in a cup of cold water forms a soft ball. Feel the ball with your fingers to make sure it is the right consistency. It should flatten when pressed between your fingers.
- 4 Remove from heat. Add butter or margarine and vanilla extract. Beat with a wooden spoon until the fudge loses its sheen. Do not under beat.
- 5 Pour into prepared pan and let cool. Cut into about 60 squares.
