Boil, without stirring, until mixture reaches 234°friend on a candy thermometer or until a small amount of mixture dropped into very cold water forms a soft ball that flattens when removed from water.

Beat with a wooden spoon until fudge thickens and just begins to lose some of its gloss. Quickly spread into prepared pan; cool completely. Cut into squares. Store in tightly covered container at room temperature. Makes about 36 pieces or 1-3/4 pounds. Note: For best results, do not double this recipe. This is one of our most requested recipes, but also one of our most difficult. The directions must be followed exactly. Beat too little and the fudge is too soft. Beat too long and it becomes hard and sugary.</blockquote>
