Fantasy Fudge Variation image

This is my variation of the "Fantasy Fudge" recipe found on the lable of Kraft Marshmallow Creme. I find that using powdered sugar and cocao makes a nice change from baker's chocolate.

2 lbs powdered sugar
1 1/2 cups cocoa
1 (5 ounce) can evaporated milk (about 2/3 cup)
