2 cups granulated sugar
2/3 cup milk
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon almond extract
Combine sugar, milk, light corn syrup, and salt in a medium saucepan. Stir over medium heat until the sugar dissolves. Bring to a boil and cook for 5 minutes; do not scrape the sides of the saucepan.
Remove from the heat and stir in butter; cool to room temperature without stirring.
Add almond extract and beat until thickened and fudge begins to lose its gloss.
Pour into a buttered 8-inch pan.
Cool before cutting into squares.
