This one is easy and only three ingredients. Sent in by Mrs. Ray Yutzy I made it and it was not only a nice easy fudge but sat up fast and didn't taste like sugar like some do. Was a nice fudge but work fast as it was setting in the pan.

GRANDMA'S CREAMY PEANUT BUTTER FUDGE



Grandma's Creamy Peanut Butter Fudge image

This old-fashioned style of peanut butter fudge is not that easy to find out there. The ones I tend to run across always seem to be the soft, creamy version, which is not what I'm into. If it's going to feel like peanut butter in my mouth, then what's the point? No, I want something that feels dense and firm in my fingers but will almost instantly liquefy in when it hits my tongue.
