Ingredients
Instructions
- In a 2-quart glass measuring cup, combine sugar, cocoa, milk, butter, and corn syrup. Microwave on High for 5 minutes.
- Stir well until the sugar dissolves. Microwave on High for 9 to 11 minutes or until the mixture reaches 234°F (soft-ball stage).
- Let stand about 30 minutes before cutting into squares and serving.
Tips & Substitutions
For a creamier texture, consider using heavy cream instead of milk. If you prefer a nut-free version, simply omit the walnuts or substitute with dried fruits like raisins or cranberries. To ensure even cooking, stir the mixture halfway through the microwaving process. Keep an eye on the temperature to avoid burning.
Serving Suggestions
Cut the fudge into small squares and serve it as a delightful dessert at gatherings or alongside a cup of coffee. It pairs beautifully with a refreshing glass of Orange Punch(For Children Or Teetotalers) for a sweet treat. For a fun twist, try serving it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover fudge in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week. If you want to keep it longer, refrigerate it for up to three weeks. When ready to serve, you can enjoy it chilled or let it sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use different types of nuts in this recipe?
Yes, you can substitute walnuts with other nuts like pecans or almonds. Just chop them coarsely and add them in at the end of cooking. If you prefer a nut-free version, consider adding dried fruits for extra flavor and texture.
What should I do if my fudge doesn't set properly?
If your fudge is too soft, it may not have reached the correct temperature. You can return it to the microwave and heat it in short bursts, stirring in between, until it reaches 234°F. Alternatively, you can refrigerate it to help it firm up.
Can I double this recipe?
Yes, you can double the ingredients to make a larger batch. However, be sure to use a large enough microwave-safe container to prevent overflow. You may need to adjust the cooking time to ensure the mixture reaches the soft-ball stage.
