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.

Time 1h20m

Yield 64

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 pound powdered sugar
1 ¼ cups unsalted butter
1 ½ cups creamy peanut butter
½ teaspoon kosher salt
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Sift sugar through a fine-mesh strainer into a large bowl.
  • Heat butter and peanut butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk to combine and cook until bubbles appear on the edges, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in salt and vanilla extract. Pour over powdered sugar in the bowl. Mix together using a spatula until smooth.
  • Spread mixture into an 8x8-inch baking pan lined with plastic wrap. Wrap fully and refrigerate until firm enough to cut but not too hard, 1 to 3 hours.
  • Unwrap fudge and cut into small cubes. Let warm up on the counter before cutting if needed.

Tips:

  • Use a candy thermometer to ensure the fudge reaches the correct temperature. This will help prevent the fudge from being too soft or too hard.
  • Line the pan with parchment paper to make it easier to remove the fudge once it has set.
  • If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the fudge by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If the fudge forms a soft ball, it is ready.
  • Be careful not to overcook the fudge, as this will make it grainy.
  • Store the fudge in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

Brenda's Peanut Butter Fudge is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy peanut butter flavor and smooth, rich texture, this fudge is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give this recipe a try.
