-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 c 2% milk
3/4 c Unsweetened cocoa powder
5 tb Unflavored gelatin (5 pkg)
1 c Water
1/2 c Sweetener equiv. to sugar**
1 t Artificial brandy extract

Preparation 10 min, standing time 4 hours.

In small saucepan, combine milk and cocoa. Whisk
until there are no lumps of cocoa. Cook over medium
heat, stirring for about 5 min or until thickened.
(This cooks out the raw cocoa taste.)

In another small saucepan, sprinkle gelatin over
water; let stand for 5 min to soften.

Heat over low heat, stirring, until gelatin dissolves.
Stir into cocoa mixture.

Stir in sweetener (artificial sweetener like SugarTwin
equivalent to 1/2 cup sugar) and brandy extract.
Remove from heat.

Pour into 8 inch square baking dish. Let stand at
room temperature 4 hours or until firm.

To remove from pan, cut around edges with a sharp
knife. Place dish in shallow pan of hot water for
about 30 seconds just to slightly soften bottom.
Loosen one corner, then quickly flip gel out onto
clean cutting surface.

With sharp knife, cut evenly in 10 one way and 10 the
other way. Place in container, cover and refrigerate.
Will keep up to 1 week in refrigerator. Makes 100
squares.
