AUNTIE JEAN'S FUDGE

Steps:

• 1. Take a heavy saucepan and add cocoa, milk and sugar. Heat on medium stir only until all mixed together and all the cocoa and sugar have disolved. Put your candy thermometer onto the side and make sure the end of it doesn't touch the bottom of the pan or you will not get a proper reading. Cook WITHOUT stirring until the candy thermometer reads soft ball stage. If you like firmer fudge cook until 238 degree. Once it reaches soft ball stage or 238 degrees remove from heat. Add cold butter and vanilla extract. DO NOT stir yet. Wait until the thermometer reads 110 degrees. Once at proper temperature stir or whip with wooden spoon until it loses its glossy sheen. Pour into a buttered pan or buttered deep dinner plate. Cut when firm usually when it is cool.
