2/3 c. cocoa
3 c. sugar
1/8 tsp. salt
1 1/2 c. milk
1/4 c. butter
1 tsp. vanilla
Nuts

Combine cocoa, sugar, salt, and milk; mix well. Bring to a bubbly boil on high heat, stirring continuously. Reduce to medium heat and continue to boil without stirring until it reaches 232 degrees or until a small amount of mixture forms soft ball.

Remove from heat; add butter and vanilla. DO NOT STIR; allow fudge to cool to room temperature (110 degrees). Beat by hand until fudge thickens. Quickly pour and spread fudge in lightly buttered dish. An 8 x 8 x 2 pan yields 3 dozen squares.
