  • OLD FASHIONED CHOCOLATE FUDGE
    INGREDIENTS
    2 cups sugar
    3 Tablespoons cocoa powder
    1/2 cup milk
    50g butter
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    Combine the sugar, cocoa powder, milk and butter in a large, heavy saucepan over medium heat. Mix well. Cook, stirring constantly, until sugar had dissolved. (about 10 minutes) Let it boil without stirring until it reaches soft ball stage. (about 2-3 minutes)
    Soft ball stage - drop a small amount in cold water to test - it should form a soft ball when removed from the water.
    Remove from the heat and let stand for 10 minutes.
    Stir with a wooden spoon until fudge begins to thicken.
    Pour into the tin and cut when cold.

    This was may Dad's favorite kind of fudge. Quick and Easy. He made it so many times he didn't even need the old water temp trick. It was HIS too, we didn't get any till he had what he wanted..! Miss you dad!

    I made this and it turned out great! I used half a stick of butter and measured 25 grams cocoa powder (one fourth cup) with a kitchen scale.8 heated to 238 on the candy thermometer and beat for about a minute and a half. After beating I added marshmallows and almonds immediately before pouring into the pan for a Rocky road fudge!

    Yummy fudge. I will definitely try this recipe and add some variations to the chocolate also such as chopped unsalted nuts to make fudge with nuts, and/or peppermint extract or peppermint oil to make mint fudge

    This is exactly the way old fashioned chocolate fudge should look like...and it's not gritty or overcooked. Don't knock it till you try it first. It's supposed to have a firm texture. Make it just the way it tells you to and you will love it.

      Don't rely on candy thermometer. Use the cold cup of water method.

    You did it wrong, your supposed to add the butter and vanilla after the boil

    • @traveltimes4109
      @traveltimes4109 2 роки тому +7

      I noticed that, but it still turned out the correct consistency, so apparently there is more than one way to successfully make this!

    • @vegasmandie6398
      @vegasmandie6398 2 роки тому +8

      It was just an FYI, if you add the vanilla prior to cooking, you cook away the vanilla, because vanilla extract is alcohol and vanilla bean also adding the butter prior to cooking huge chance a gritty consistency, again just an FYI much love

      @@vegasmandie6398 Agree, not sure what it was actually like if it was gritty or not, it just looked to have the right consistency. I made the mistake one time of adding vanilla while making a cooked custard on the stove, not supposed to be added till after cooked, it never thickened like it was supposed to. Technique and timing is everything 👍🏻😊

    That looks a bit overdone. You have to watch it with fudge: undercooked it won't harden (it's still good on ice cream, though); overcooked it becomes chocolate concrete.
