Strawberry Fudge

Ingredients

• 1 (12 fluid ounce) can evaporated milk
• 3 cups white sugar
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 3/4 cups sliced fresh strawberries
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice

Directions

Butter a 9×9 inch dish.

Combine milk, sugar and butter in a large saucepan over medium heat; boil. Stir in strawberries and lemon juice. Heat, stirring constantly, to between 234 and 240 degrees F (112 to 116 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a soft ball that flattens when removed from the water and placed on a flat surface.

Remove from heat and quickly spread in prepared pan. Let cool before cutting and serving.
