Walnut Fudge

Ingredients:

• 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (Hershey's)
• 2 bags confectioners sugar (set aside 2 cups from one bag)
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1 cup milk (adjust to achieve the desired consistency)
• 1 tablespoon vanilla
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 2 cups chopped walnuts

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Fudge Base:
   • In a large pot over low heat, combine milk, vanilla, butter, cocoa powder, and granulated sugar. Stir until fully blended, ensuring the sugar dissolves completely.
2. Incorporate Confectioners Sugar:
   • Remove the pot from heat and gradually add confectioners sugar, stirring continuously until the mixture achieves a smooth texture. If needed, return to heat to avoid any clumps. Aim for a thick and challenging-to-stir consistency.
3. Add the Nutty Element:
   • While still on heat, introduce the chopped walnuts to the fudge mixture, making the combination smoother.
4. Prepare the Pan:
   • Line a regular cake pan with plastic wrap. Transfer the fudge mixture into the pan, spreading it evenly.
5. Allow to Cool and Slice:
   • Let the fudge cool for approximately 25 to 30 minutes. Once set, slice into individual portions.
6. Wrap and Enjoy:
   • For added convenience, individually wrap each piece with parchment paper.

Tips:

• Adjust the milk quantity based on your desired fudge consistency.
• Feel free to incorporate extra confectioners sugar if necessary for the ideal texture.
