    ¼ cup

Method

1
Combine sugar, Hershey low-fat cocoa, and Perfection evaporated skim milk in a medium saucepan.
2
Heat the mixture over medium-high heat, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon to dissolve the sugar and cocoa.
5 minutes
3
Once the mixture reaches a rolling boil, stop stirring and allow it to boil undisturbed to reach the soft-ball stage (approximately 235°F on a candy thermometer).
8 minutes
4
Remove the saucepan from heat and add Butter Buds, vanilla extract, and almond extract.
5
Stir gently until the Butter Buds dissolve completely and the mixture is well combined.
6
Allow the fudge mixture to cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally to prevent separation, approximately 5 minutes.
7
Pour the fudge into a parchment-lined 8x8-inch baking dish, smoothing the top with a spatula.
8
Refrigerate until firm, approximately 2-3 hours, then cut into 1-inch squares and store in an airtight container.
