Buttermilk Fudge
1 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup butter
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 cups sugar
1 cup chopped nuts
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Put buttermilk, butter, corn syrup, soda and sugar in a saucepan. Cook over low heat, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Then cook to 238 degrees on a candy thermometer, or when a small amount of mixture forms a soft ball when dropped in very cold water.
Remove from heat and cool to lukewarm. Beat until mixture begins to thicken and loses its gloss. Quickly stir in nuts and vanilla. Pour into a buttered 8-inch square pan. Cut in squares when firm but still warm. Makes about one and a half pounds.
