Request for Fudge Recipe that is crumbly

[NancyRogers]

Hi,
I am looking for a fudge recipe for a fudge that is crumbly not soft. Years ago I had the recipie and it had peanut butter in it also. Does anyone have it?

Thanx,
Irene

Old Fashioned Cocoa Fudge

This is a crumbly, sugary old fashion fudge.... Old Fashioned Cocoa Fudge


Posted by chef Johnson 11/15/1999 in Desserts, High Calcium,



3 cups sugar
2/3 cup cocoa
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups milk
1/4 cup butter or margarine
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 Line 8 or 9 inch square pan with foil; butter foil.
2 In large heavy saucepan stir together first three ingredients; stir in milk, with a wooden spoon*.
3 Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture comes to a full rolling boil.
4 Boil without stirring, to 234 degrees F.
5 on a candy thermometer.
6 (or until syrup, when dropped in very cold water forms a soft ball which flattens when removed from water.) Remove from heat. Add butter & vanilla.
7 DO NOT STIR! Cool at room temperature to 110 degrees F (lukewarm). Beat with wooden spoon until fudge thickens & loses some of its gloss.
8 Quickly spread into prepared pan; cool.
9 Cut into squares.
10 Store wrapped loosely in foil in the refrigerator *it is very important not to use a wire whisk or anything like that. Also just stir gently, even though the cocoa will stay floating on top, it will mix in as the mixture heats up.
