southern recipes pic Southern Fudge Ingredients
* 2 cups evaporated milk
* 1/4 cup cocoa powder
* 6 cups sugar
* 1 tsp salt
* 6 TBS butter (or margarine)
* 1 cup marshmallow cream
* 1 1/2 cups chopped English walnuts

Southern Fudge Directions:
1. Put the milk, cocoa powder, sugar, salt and butter in a large sauce pan.
2. Mix the ingredients over medium high heat until the mixture comes to a boil. Stir often.
3. Once mixture comes to a boil, stir constantly while maintaining a hard rolling boil.
4. Cook until the mixture reaches the soft ball stage**.
** Soft boil is when a drop of the fudge mixture in a glass of cold water immediately forms a soft ball.
** This should take about 5 minutes after you obtain a hard boil.
** If you have a candy thermometer, cook until temperature reaches 230-240 degrees F.
5. Remove from heat and let cool 10 minutes.
6. Stir in the marshmallow cream and nuts. Beat vigorously until the real glossy look is gone.
7. Spread out in a 12 x 9 pan coated lightly with spray or butter.
Wait until the fudge is set (hardened up) to cut.
