Old-Fashioned Chocolate Fudge

This is a great recipe but I think that people that arenโ€™t familiar with sugar cooking need to know that it is very difficult to make a recipe like this on an electric stove and they need to understand more about sugar crystalization. One sugar crystal in the pot after it is cooked will ruin the candy. I always make sure that I take a wet paper towel and wipe down the sides of the pot after the mixture comes to a boil to remove any undissolved sugar; I never put a spoon into the mixture after it comes to a boil (it might have sugar crystals on it) and I never stir or move the fudge after it is cooked (do not stir the butter and vanilla into it) until it is cooled to at least 115 degrees. Then, and only then, beat like mad until it loses its gloss and then pour it quickly into your pan. It shouldnโ€™t take a long time to reach the desired temperature if the size of the pot is large enough and if itโ€™s heavy enough it will not burn. It takes about 10-15 minutes from beginning to end of cooking for me.
