Believe me when I say that you must try this Old Fashioned Cocoa Fudge. There is not a single month when I don't serve this yummy Dessert! Was it you or the fragrance of Old Fashioned Cocoa Fudge that you're making that has drawn me to the kitchen?, were my partner's words.
Ingredients
3 cups sugar
4 tablespoons cocoa
Pinch of salt
1 1/2 cups milk
1 tablespoon butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
Directions
Combine the sugar, cocoa, and salt in a heavy 4-quart saucepan.
Stir in the milk.
Place over low heat, and cook, stirring constantly, until the sugar is dissolved.
Then continue cooking without stirring to 234°, or until a small amount dropped into cold water forms a soft ball.
Remove from the heat; add the butter and, without stirring, cool to lukewarm (110°).
Add the vanilla and beat until the fudge is thick and loses its shine.
Quickly pour into a lightly buttered 8-inch square pan.
When firm, cut into squares.
Stir in the milk.
