Chocolate Philly Fudge Recipes

OLD-FASHIONED CHOCOLATE FUDGE

Steps:

• Grease an 8x8 inch square baking pan. Set aside.
• Combine sugar, cocoa and milk in a medium saucepan. Stir to blend, then bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat and simmer. Do not stir again.
• Place candy thermometer in pan and cook until temperature reaches 238 degrees F(114 degrees C). If you are not using a thermometer, then cook until a drop of this mixture in a cup of cold water forms a soft ball. Feel the ball with your fingers to make sure it is the right consistency. It should flatten when pressed between your fingers.
• Remove from heat. Add butter or margarine and vanilla extract. Beat with a wooden spoon until the fudge loses its sheen. Do not under beat.
• Pour into prepared pan and let cool. Cut into about 60 squares.

CHOCOLATE PHILLY CREAM CHEESE FUDGE

Steps:

• 1. Gather ingredients
• 2. I have made this with cream cheese straight out of the fridge. It's easier if its softened before hand..but the mixer will soften it after a minute or two.. Gradually add sugar to cream cheese mixing well after each addition.
• 3. Add remaining ingredients; mix well. Spread into greased 8 - inch square pan. Chill several hours, cut into squares.
• 4. In this picture, the fudge is lighter, because I was out of the unsweetened chocolate, so I used semi sweet.
• 5. Nobody that has ever tried this believes all the more there is to making it..and is melt in the mouth good!
