I think I got this from a Hershey's cookbook but it has been so many years ago I don't really remember. Very popular at Christmas. It is a rather 'pretty' fudge because of the layers. Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine |
3/4 cup cocoa |
4 cups confectioners' sugar |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/2 cup evaporated milk |
3 tablespoons softened butter or 3 tablespoons margarine |
1 tablespoon water |
1/8-1/4 teaspoon mint extract |
1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar |
green food coloring |
Directions:
1. Line 8-inch square pan with foil.
2. In medium microwave-safe bowl place butter.
3. Microwave at HIGH 1 to 1 1/2 minutes or until melted.
4. Add cocoa; stir until smooth.
5. Stir in confectioners' sugar and vanilla; blend well (mixture will be dry and crumbly).
6. Stir in evaporated milk.
7. Microwave at HIGH 1 to 2 minutes or until mixture is hot.
8. Beat with whisk until smooth.
9. Immediately pour into prepared pan.
10. Cover; chill until firm.
11. Spread Pastel Mint Topping (see below) evenly over fudge; chill until firm.
12. Cut into 1-inch squares.
13. Cover; store in refrigerator.
14. Pastel Mint Topping.
15. In small mixer bowl beat 3 tablespoons softened butter or margarine, 1 tablespoon water and 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon mint extract until blended.
