GRANDMA'S CREAMY PEANUT BUTTER FUDGE
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.

- Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan: This will help to prevent the fudge from burning.
- Stir the fudge constantly: This will help to prevent it from sticking to the pan and to ensure a smooth texture.
- Let the fudge cool completely before cutting it: This will help to prevent it from crumbling.
- Store the fudge in an airtight container in a cool, dry place: This will help to keep it fresh for up to 2 weeks.
