Zubereitung von Old Fashioned Chocolate Fudge
- In a medium saucepan, combine the chocolate chips, brown sugar, granulated sugar, milk, and corn syrup.
- Stir over medium-low heat until the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
- Clip a candy thermometer to the side of the pan, ensuring it doesn't touch the bottom. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture reaches the soft-ball stage (235°F-240°F). A small amount dropped into a glass of ice water should form a soft ball that flattens slightly when removed.
- During cooking, use a pastry brush dipped in cold water to wash down any sugar crystals that accumulate on the sides of the pan.
- Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the butter until it's completely melted and incorporated.
- Let the mixture stand undisturbed for at least 30 minutes, or until it has cooled and slightly thickened. Do not stir during cooling.
- Once cool, beat the fudge vigorously with a wooden spoon or electric mixer until it begins to lose its glossy shine and becomes slightly thicker.
- Stir in the vanilla extract and nuts (if using).
- Pour the fudge into a greased 8x8 inch baking pan.
- Allow the fudge to cool completely at room temperature before cutting into squares.
- Once set, cut into squares and enjoy your homemade Old-Fashioned Chocolate Fudge!
