Recipes : Detail

RICH COCOA FUDGE

. 3 cups sugar
. 2/3 cup HERSHEY'S Cocoa or HERSHEY'S Dutch
Processed Cocoa
. 1/8 teaspoon salt
. 1-1/2 cups milk
. 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter
. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract


1. Line 8-or 9-inch square pan with foil,
extending foil over edges of pan. Butter foil.

2. Mix sugar, cocoa and salt in heavy 4-quart
saucepan; stir in milk. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until
mixture comes to full rolling boil. Boil, without stirring, until mixture
reaches 234°F on candy thermometer or until small amount of mixture dropped
into very cold water, forms a soft ball which flattens when removed from
water. (Bulb of candy thermometer should not rest on bottom of saucepan.)

3. Remove from heat. Add butter and vanilla. DO NOT
STIR. Cool at room temperature to 110°F (lukewarm). Beat with wooden spoon
until fudge thickens and just begins to lose some of its gloss. Quickly
spread into prepared pan; cool completely. Cut into squares. Store in
tightly covered container at room temperature. About 36 pieces or 1-3/4
pounds.

NOTE: For best results, do not double this recipe.

VARIATIONS:
NUTTY RICH COCOA FUDGE: Beat cooked fudge as
directed. Immediately stir in 1 cup chopped almonds, pecans or walnuts and

MARSHMALLOW-NUT COCOA FUDGE: Increase cocoa to 3/4
cup. Cook fudge as directed. Add 1 cup marshmallow creme with butter and
vanilla. DO NOT STIR. Cool to 110°F (lukewarm). Beat 8 minutes; stir in 1
cup chopped nuts. Pour into prepared pan. (Fudge does not set until poured
into pan.)
