Recipe Introduction
Damaris's father use to under cook his fudge recipe, this is the result.
List of Ingredients
1 1/2 cups corn syrup
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup whole milk
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
Cooking spray, for the baking panRecipe
Special equipment: a candy thermometer
Spray the bottom of an 8-by-8-inch baking pan with cooking spray. Line the baking pan with overlapping pieces of parchment, leaving enough to hang over the sides of the pan; this will help you remove the fudge from the pan. Spray the pieces of parchment with cooking spray.
Combine the corn syrup, sugar, whole milk, cocoa powder and butter in a heavy-bottom saucepan fitted with a candy thermometer over medium heat.
Stir until the sugar and butter melt. Stop stirring and let the mixture continue to cook until the thermometer reaches 238 degrees F, 7 to 10 minutes.
Once the mixture reaches 238 degrees F, stir in the vanilla extract and turn off the heat immediately. Pour the spoon fudge into the prepared 8-by-8-inch baking pan, tapping gently so the fudge is evenly distributed.
Cool to room temperature, and then place in the refrigerator to set until firm enough to cut, about 1 hour.
Once the fudge is set, use the parchment to lift the candy out of the baking pan onto a cutting board.
Peel off the parchment.
Cut the fudge into 1-by-2-inch pieces and wrap each with waxed paper.
Store in the refrigerator until ready to serve or up to 1 week.
