Fudge Recipe

Particularly smooth fudge is made in a way that seems strange until you

try it. Take two cups of sugar, half a cup of milk, one tablespoonful of

butter, a few drops of vanilla, and four tablespoonfuls of cocoa. Mix,

and boil without stirring until it makes a soft ball when dropped in

cold water. Remove from the fire, set aside until cool, then pour on to

a buttered platter and beat with a silver fork until creamy. When you

see it beginning to harden, quickly smooth out and mark in squares.
