Hershey’s Cocoa Fudge
This classic old-fashioned Hershey cocoa fudge recipe is the perfect way to satisfy your sweet tooth with a rich, creamy fudge. The recipe uses just a few simple ingredients, but the flavor is out of this world. Hershey’s cocoa powder gives this fudge a rich chocolate flavor that is both sweet and indulgent.
INGREDIENTS:
⅛ tsp. Salt
⅔ C. Hershey’s cocoa powder
1 ½ C. Milk
1 tsp. Vanilla
3 C. Sugar
4 Tbsp. Butter
DIRECTIONS:
Heat the cocoa powder, sugar and salt over medium low heat until the sugar has melted.
Stir in the milk, and raise the temperature to medium high.
Bring the mixture to a boil, and leave undisturbed until the temperature reaches 234 degrees as shown on a candy thermometer placed on the side of the pot.
Remove the pot from the heat, and add the vanilla and butter. Do not stir.
Wait until the temperature reads 130 degrees, and then stir for several minutes until the mixture begins to dull.
Pour into a well greased 9×13 baking dish, and drag a knife through the mixture to eliminate air bubbles.
Set for 2-3 hours, and then chill before serving.
