   • In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, water, cocoa, and butter. Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir until the butter is melted and the mixture is smooth.

2. Boil:

   • Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Allow it to simmer for 2 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent burning.

3. Add Vanilla:

   • Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Let the mixture cool for about 20 minutes, allowing it to thicken slightly.

4. Incorporate Flour and Nuts:

   • Once the mixture has cooled, gradually add the all-purpose flour, stirring until well combined. If desired, fold in the chopped nuts for added texture and flavor.

5. Pour into Pan:

   • Line a 9×9 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal. Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.

6. Chill:

   • Transfer the pan to the refrigerator and chill the fudge for a few hours, or until it has set firm.

7. Cut into Pieces:

   • Once the fudge is chilled and set, remove it from the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Use a sharp knife to cut the fudge into one-inch pieces, creating neat squares.

8. Serve and Enjoy:

   • Arrange the fudge pieces on a serving platter and indulge in this irresistible homemade treat. Whether you’re treating yourself or sharing with loved ones, this fudge is sure to be a hit!
