Stir constantly until it reaches a soft ball stage at a temperature of about 230 degrees. (Use your candy thermometer to verify temperature.)

This would also make a fantastic gift for Harry Potter fans if you have one on your list this year. Keep refrigerated until gifting and make sure to wrap the fudge with wax paper before gifting. If you want to add a special touch, you can wrap it in a scarf or use it as a stocking stuffer once wrapped in wax paper.
