OLD-FASHIONED HERSHEY'S COCOA FUDGE

 ITS THE BEST OF FUDGES.  WHEN I SAW THIS RECIPE DONE ON YOUTUBE, I HAD TO POST IT FOR ALL MY FRIENDS.  ITS THE ONE I MAKE EVERY CHRISTMAS, THE ONE THAT MY FAMILY LOVES AND ALWAYS WANTS TO ENJOY.

IF YOUR FAMILY WANTS THE KIND OF FUDGE GRANDMA USED TO MAKE, THIS IS IT.

INGREDIENTS:

3 Cups Granulated Sugar

2/3 Cup Hershey's Cocoa (in the dark brown can)

1/8 teaspoon Salt

1 1/2 Cups Evaporated Milk

4 oz. Unsweetened Butter (1/4 Cup)

1 teaspoon Vanilla

Nuts as desired.  

I HAVE TO ADMIT TO NOT USING A CANDY THERMOMENTER, PREFERRING TO TEST FOR THE SOFT-BALL STAGE IN A BIT OF COLD WATER.  

I AGREE ALSO, THAT DOUBLING THE RECIPE DOES NOT WORK.  I TRIED IT AND IT NEVER WORKED FOR ME.

IF YOU WANT A TERRIFIC TASTE OF OLD, TRY THIS FUDGE SOMETIME.  IT MAY END UP BEING YOUR FAMILY'S FAVORITE, LIKE MINE.

ENJOY!
