Confectioners' sugar, cocoa, butter, milk and vanilla are cooked in a double boiler, then beaten like mad and spread in a pan to cool into fudgey gloriousness.
INGREDIENTS (for 1 servings):
- 4 cups confectioners' sugar
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 6 tablespoons butter
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chopped pecans
PREPARATION:
Butter a 9x9 inch dish.

Let cool completely before cutting into squares.
