Bubba’s Chocolate Fudge (Martha Goode Nilles)

Ingredients
Amount	Ingredient
1 TBSP	Corn Syrup
½ Cup	Milk
2 TBSP	Butter
2 Cups	Sugar
½ Cup	Cream
4 TBSP	Cocoa
⅛ tsp	Salt
1 tsp	Vanilla
Instructions
Put the sugar, cocoa, and salt into a saucepan. Add a little of the cream, enough to make a paste. Now add the remainder of the cream. Add the milk, syrup, and butter and place mixture over the flame. Stir the mixture with a wooden spoon until it starts to boil. Once it is boiling, reduce the heat. Cook slowly for about 40 minutes. While fudge cooks, butter a shallow pan. Test the hot fudge by dropping a tiny bit of it from a spoon into a dish of very cold water. When the fudge forms a soft ball, slightly firm outside, the fudge is done. Remove fudge from fire. Add vanilla and mix. When fudge is cool, stir until creamy. Just before fudge gets creamy you will notice a change in color from dark to light. At this point, pour the fudge into the buttered pan. When the fudge is almost cool, cut into one-inch squares.
