Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups sugar
  • 2/3 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • Prepare an 8- or 9-inch square pan by lining it with foil. Grease the foil generously with butter.
  • Stir sugar, cocoa powder, and salt together in a large, heavy pot over medium heat. Combine well. 
  • Stir in the milk with a wooden spoon. Bring the milk to a full boil, stirring constantly. Bring it to a boil without stirring until a candy thermometer reads 234 degrees F.
  • Turn off the heat and remove the pan. Stir the butter and vanilla into the saucepan until the temperature reaches 110-120 degrees F, but do not stir.
  • Beat the fudge with the wooden spoon once it has cooled so that it has thickened and lost some of its glossiness. 
  • Put the fudge in a greased pan and spread it quickly. Allow to cool slowly. 
  • Once completely cooled, cut into squares. Wrap the fudge loosely in foil and store it in the refrigerator.
