Ingredients
Instructions
- Lightly butter a rectangular or square dish.
- In a small bowl combine the cocoa powder and enough water to make a paste (the consistency of toothpaste.
- In a medium saucepan - combine the milk, sugar, and butter and bring it to boil.
- When the mixture comes to boil, add the chocolate mixture. Stir well to remove the lumps and keep at a low boil. Stir occasionally around 15-20 min until you can feel the consistency change. (this can be tested by dropping a small drop of the chocolate into a cold cup of cold water and it should turn into a firm ball)
- Remove the saucepan from the stove add the vanilla and continue to beat the chocolate until you can feel it begin to firm and lose its glossy look.
- As soon as the fudge begins to feel firm and you can see the consistency change, turn it out onto the buttered dish and slice it immediately. Enjoy!
