Chocolate Brown Sugar Raisin Fudge
| Sugar (brown), | 22/3 cups |
| Milk, | ½ cup |
| Chocolate, | 2 squares |
| Butter, | 1 tablespoon |
| Flavoring (vanilla), | 1 teaspoon |
| Raisins (seeded), | ½ cup |
While the sugar, milk, chocolate and butter were boiling Betsey poured boiling water over the raisins, let them stand a minute or two, then drained and spread on a towel to absorb all of the moisture. She then cut them in halves.
When a little of the candy dropped into cold water formed a soft ball Betsey removed the saucepan from the stove, placed it in a pan of cold water, added the raisins and vanilla, beat the fudge until it was thick like heavy cream, poured quickly into a buttered pan and marked in squares.
