Creamy Peanut Butter Fudge Recipe

Creamy Peanut Butter Fudge Recipe

Ingredients:

• 2 cups granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup whole milk
• 1 cup creamy peanut butter
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, cubed

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Pan:
   • Line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it with butter.
2. Heat the Sugar and Milk:
   • In a medium saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and milk. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar is dissolved.
3. Boil the Mixture:
   • Bring the mixture to a boil, and let it cook without stirring until it reaches the soft-ball stage, which is about 234°F (112°C) on a candy thermometer. This should take around 5-7 minutes.
4. Add the Peanut Butter and Vanilla:
   • Remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the peanut butter, vanilla extract, and butter until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
5. Pour and Set:
   • Pour the mixture into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
6. Cool and Cut:
   • Allow the fudge to cool at room temperature for about 2 hours, or until it is set.
   • Once cooled, cut the fudge into squares.

Enjoy your creamy peanut butter fudge!
