Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

1/4 c UNSWEETENED COCOA
14 oz SWEETENED CONDENSED MILK
1 c WATER
2 tb ORANGE PEEL; finely grated
1 tb LIGHT CORN SYRUP
4 c GRANULATED SUGAR
1 c BROWN SUGAR; firmly packed
1 c DATES; chopped
1 c NUTS; chopped

In a heavy 4-quart saucepan, combine cocoa, condensed milk, water,
orange peel, corn syrup, granulated sugar and brown sugar. Place over
medium heat and stir with a wooden spoon until mixture comes to a
boil. Clip on candy thermometer. Cook to 236 F (115 C) or soft- ball
stage. Remove from heat and allow mixture to cool to lukewarm.
Meanwhile, butter a 9-inch square baking pan; set aside. Add dates
and nuts to fudge. Using a wooden spoon, stir until mixture thickens
and begins to set up. Scrape into prepared pan. Refrigerate 3 hours
or until firm. Cut into 1-inch squares. Serve immediately, or store
in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Shared by ELLIE COLLIN
