Microwave Fudge Recipe

Combine sugar, milk, corn syrup and chocolate in 2-quart microwave safe bowl. Stir well. Microwave on High for 5 to 5 1/2 minutes, or until mixture boils, stirring once. Scrape sides of bowl down well to remove any sugar crystals. Insert microwave-safe candy thermometor. Microwave on High for 4 1/2 to 5 1/2 minutes or until 235F degrees or until soft ball forms. Add butter, but do not stir. Cool mixture without stirring to 120F degrees. Grease 8-inch square baking pan. Add vanilla to fudge; beat vigorously for 5 to 10 minutes until candy is thick and begins to lose its gloss. Spread in baking pan. Cool until firm. Cut into squares.

Note - Microwaves vary so watch the mixture carefully while preparing this recipe and adjust the times accordingly.
