Directions:
Combine sugars, corn syrup, butter, milk and salt in a medium sized heavy saucepan. Heat, stirring constantly, to boiling, then cook stirring several times to 238º on a candy thermometer or until a tsp. of syrup forns a soft ball when dropped in cold water. Remove from heat, add vanilla, do not stir in.
Cool mixture in pan to 110º. Beat with a wooden spoon until mixture thickens and begins to lose gloss (aprox. 15 minutes) spread in buttered 9 inch pan. Let stand until set and cut. I line pan with foil makes it easier to remove from pan to cut.

Personal Notes:
This recipe was in my mothers recipe box, the first time I tried it at about age 13. I misread the ingredients which read a piece of butter the size of an egg, and added an egg to the ingredients, it was edible but my Dad asked me why I put coconut in the fudge, which caused my Mom to ask me what ingredients I put in the fudge. We all had a good laugh about that and I learned to always double check a recipe before I got out the ingredients.
