Steps:
- Combine all ingredients except butter and vanilla. In a 2 quart saucepan, combine the sugar, half and half, cocoa, salt, and corn syrup. Mix well with a whisk and bring to a boil over medium-low heat. While the fudge is cooking, butter a plate or baking dish for pouring the mixture into later.
- Heat until the mixture reaches 240 degrees. Let the fudge cook until it reaches 240 degrees, checked with a candy thermometer or instant-read thermometer. Don't stir during the cooking process. Once the temperature is reached, immediately remove the pan from the heat.
- Place butter and vanilla on top and allow to cool. Place the butter and vanilla on top of the fudge and allow it to cool. Do not mix or disturb the pan. Let it cool about. 20 minutes until the side of the pan is warm but not hot to the touch.
- Mix with a hand mixer until fudge begins to firm up. Using a hand mixer on medium-low, beat the fudge for 1-3 minutes until it just begins to firm up and lose its shine.
- Quickly pour into a buttered dish, cool, and cut. Once the fudge changes texture, immediately pour it into a dish to set. Work quickly. It if is not pourable, just scoop it out and flatten in the best you can. Allow it to cool for 20 minutes and cut into one-inch squares.

Steps:
- 1. Set up a work area for tempering the fudge. I run about 3 inches of cold water in the sink and lay out a dish towel next to it. The water will be to quick cool the chocolate and then you set the pot on the towel and stir. ( the towel also keeps you from dripping water when you pour the chocolate.)
- 2. Coat a 8x12 pan (9x13 will be ok, too.) with butter and set next to towel.
- 3. Cut remaining butter and set aside.
- 4. In a 6 quart pot add sugar, cocoa powder and salt. DO NOT TURN ON THE HEAT YET !
- 5. Using the flat side of a spatula mix well. You do not want clumps.
- 6. Add both milks and stir til well mixed and there are no lumps. Turn heat on to medium high and bring to boil. Notice how it looks like there is not much in pot. Stir CONSTANTLY.
- 7. As the mixture heats up it will bubble up.
- 8. When it reaches a certain tempature it will start to go back down. It will start to really shine.
- 9. Every now and then do a water test. To do this, fill a glass with cold water and drop some fudge mixture into it.
- 10. When it reaches the softball stage remove from heat. Softball stage is when you can roll the drop into a soft ball.
- 11. Add vanilla extract and stir..it will bubble up some as it burns off the alcohol. Add butter and stir.
- 12. Now dip pot into water in sink for 4-5 seconds then place on towel and stir. Repeat several times.
- 13. Mixture will begin to thicken. Add nuts and stir.
- 14. Mixture will start to look a little dull..Hurry and pour into buttered pan. Sprinkle a little nuts on top if you want.
- 15. Let set up for 20 minutes then cut with a smooth bladed knife
- 16. Let cool completely before putting in a bag or tin. Otherwise it will sweat and not look so pretty... Enjoy !

COLLEGE FUDGE (OLD TIMEY CHOCOLATE FUDGE)
Would you believe this is a recipe we made in my 9th grade home economics class? They don't even teach that any more. I still make this fudge because it is the "old timey fudge", which I prefer over the quick fudge. I'm guessing that my teacher called it "college" fudge hoping to encourage us all to go to college.
