CARNATION FUDGE

2 tbsp. butter

2 sq. chocolate

3 cups sugar

2 tbsp. corn syrup (light)

½ cup Carnation Milk

½ cup water

1 tsp. vanilla

Chopped nuts, if desired.

Melt butter and shaved chocolate in a sauce pan; add sugar, corn syrup, and Carnation diluted with the water. Cook until mixture forms a soft ball in cold water or reaches a temperature of 235°F, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Remove from fire and let stand until cool. When cool add vanilla and beat until creamy; add chopped nuts and mold on a buttered plate. FUDGE BALLS may be made by forming the candy into balls and rolling in chopped nuts, cocoanut, grated chocolate, or dipping in melted chocolate. MARSHMALLOW FUDGE may be made by adding 1 cup of cut marshmallows instead of the nuts.
