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.

GRANDMA'S OLD FASHIONED FUDGE
This recipe was passed down to me and it's one of the better recipes that I have tried. Long before marshmallow creme came into any recipe, this is a recipe that came out of a 1930's-1940's cookbook.

Steps:
- 1. In saucepan combine sugar, milk, salt, chocolate squares and corn syrup.
- 2. Stir over low heat until sugar dissolves.
- 3. Cook until temperature reaches 238* or until the water test is proven (1 tsp. of mixture in a bowl of cold water is dropped in and forms a soft ball and when squeezed by fingers are flattened).
- 4. Remove from heat and drop in butter but do not stir then cool without stirring.
- 5. Add vanilla then with a wooden spoon beat until candy looses sheen then add nuts if desired.
- 6. Pour into a 8 x 8 square pan and cool completely and cut into squares.
Tips:
- Use a heavy saucepan: This will help to prevent the fudge from burning.
- Stir constantly: This will help to prevent the fudge from becoming grainy and ensure that it is smooth and creamy.
- Use a candy thermometer: This will help you to know when the fudge has reached the correct temperature and is ready to be removed from the heat.
- Let the fudge cool slightly before frosting: This will help to prevent the frosting from becoming too thin and runny.
- Store the fudge in an airtight container: This will help to keep it fresh and prevent it from drying out.
