Recipe for Peanut Butter Fudge

My Mama made this recipe for peanut butter fudge for over 40 years and passed the recipe on to me. My family LOVES it and I'm sure yours will too!

I've been making this fudge around Christmastime every year so now it just doesn't seem like Christmas without it!

Here's what you'll need:

4 cups of sugar
1 can of evaporated milk (not sweetened condensed)
1/2 cup (1 stick) of butter
2 cups of peanut butter
1 cup of walnuts, chopped
1 jar (7- ounces) of marshmallow creme
1 teaspoon of vanilla

Here's what you need to do:

Line a 17 x 13 x 1 jelly roll pan with waxed paper leaving about 2 inches of waxed paper hanging over each end(you can use a smaller pan, you'll just have thicker pieces of fudge). Set aside.

In a large, heavy bottom dutch oven, combine the sugar, evaporated milk and butter.

Stir constantly over medium heat.

Bring to a rolling boil, cook for 10 minutes, stirring constantly.

Remove from heat. Add the peanut butter, marshmallow creme, chopped nuts and vanilla.

Mix well.

Pour into prepared pan. Allow to cool for about an hour. Lift the fudge out of the pan by lifting the waxed paper "handles" that are hanging over the ends of the pan. Cut into bite sized squares.

This is such and easy fudge recipe! I'm sure you'll enjoy this peanut butter fudge recipe.
