Oh my. This sounds decadent and delicious. I am not much of a candy maker but I might just try this recipe because it sounds so darn good. It might also be a fun project for kids, since kids often like to get their hands all messy. The challenge might just be keeping little ones from eating and licking before the fudge is finished.
I assume the chocolate is unsweetened Bakers or similar brand.
Velvet Fudge
3 tbs butter, 3 tbs chocolate (or a little less), 3 cups sugar, 1 cup milk, cup walnuts.
Melt butter, add chocolate, sugar, milk. Mix well & cook to soft ball stage when tried in cold water. DO NOT STIR. Remove from fire & set aside until cold. Add walnuts & pick up and work in the hands 15 to 20 minutes. Shape into long rolls & slice.
