Lets talk FUDGE!!!! [View all]

I can't eat it, but I seem to make a lot of it! Plain fudge, walnut fudge, peanut fudge, and PECAN fudge!
Recipe from my 1954 Better Homes and Gardens cookbook

2/3cup whole milk
5tbs cocoa powder
1tbs corn syrup
2 cups sugar ( white or brown)

2tbs butter

1tsp vanilla extract
1cup chopped nuts (opitional, type of your choice)

First 3 items, combine and heat till smooth
Add sugar and cook to softball (235deg)

Remove from heat and stir in butter
Allow to sit till pan is lukewarm

Stirr in vanilla and beat till no longer glossy looking
Stir in nuts
Pour into a buttered dish and allow to cool completly before cutting.

ENJOY!!!
