Just want to check if white karo is the same as light Karo? And is it 1.5 cup nuts? The one under the pinch of salt. And when it calls for 2.5 squares chocolate, how much is that, and does it matter what kind (semi sweet, milk, unsweetened) ?
Thank you

Haha. It was the 60’s.
White Karo and light karo are the same thing.
It does look like she wrote 1.5 cups nuts.
I assume it’s baking chocolate, which is unsweetened. When you buy it and open it, it’s usually pre-measured for you usually in ounces as squares that you can break, which doesn’t usually happen with sweetened bars. 2.5 ounces of a super unsweetened bar actually makes sense for the recipe since it’s going into a batter with 3 cups sugar.
You’re right about everything and the chocolate is unsweetened Bakers chocolate
Under salt, looks like nuts or “Milo” (with a penmanship error). Milk powder to brown the caramel.
Use baker’s chocolate squares, it’s almost certainly what she meant. There is already plenty of sugar and milk product in fudge otherwise.
