Chocolate Fudge

• 2 oz. sq. Baker's unsweetened chocolate
• 1 2/3 c. sugar
• 1/2 c. milk
• 1/4 c. clear Karo
• 2 Tbsp. margarine
• pinch of salt
• 1/2 tsp. vanilla
• walnut pieces, chopped (optional)

1. In 2-quart saucepan, mix the first 4 ingredients. Bring to a full boil, stirring constantly, (I use a wooden spoon) on high heat. Set heat on medium (enough to keep boiling, but not scorch) for 6 minutes, without stirring.
2. Test for soft ball in cool water. Remove from heat and let cool for 10 minutes. Add margarine, salt and vanilla. Beat (approximately 8 to 10 minutes) until mixture begins to thicken.
3. Add walnuts, if desired, while beating. Quickly pour onto a platter (prepared with a paper towel under plastic wrap; the towel keeps the wrap from sticking to the platter).
4. Let cool thoroughly.
5. Cut into pieces with a pizza cutter.
