COCOA FUDGE 2/3 c. Hershey's cocoa 3 c. sugar (reg. granulated type) 1/8 tsp. salt 1-1/2 c. milk 1/4 c. butter 1 tsp. vanilla
Combine cocoa, sugar and salt in a large saucepan (3 quart size); add milk gradually and mix thoroughly. Bring to a bubbly boil on high heat, stirring continuously. Reduce heat to a medium temperature and continue to boil without stirring until the mixture reaches a temperature of 232 (or until a small amount forms a soft ball when dropped into cold water). --Usually this takes about 20 minutes at medium heat. Remove saucepan from heat; add butter and vanilla but do not stir. Allow to cool at room temperature until the mixture reaches 110 degrees--usually the cooling process takes about 20 minutes also. Stir by hand until fudge thickens and loses some of its gloss. Quickly pour and spread in a lightly buttered 8x8x2 inch pan. Cool and cut into squares. _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list [email protected] http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark
