3/4 cup milk
1/2 cup baking cocoa powder OR 2 oz unsweetened chocolate

Recipe
Butter sides of heavy 4 quart saucepan. In it combine first 5 ingredients. Stir over medium heat until sugar dissolves and mixture comes to boiling. Then cook to soft-ball stage (234�F). It takes 5-10 minutes to get to soft ball stage. Stir only if necessary. Immediately remove pan from heat: add butter and cool to lukewarm (110�F) without stirring. Add vanilla. Beat vigorously until fudge becomes very thick and starts to lose gloss (1 minute). Quickly spread in buttered shallow pan. Add 1/2 C nuts, if desired.
