This extra work peanut butter fudge takes constant vigilance, but it is worth the effort. It's a rich, creamy, genuine recipe, without marshmallow cream or brown sugar. To make other flavors, replace peanut butter with white chocolate chips and any flavor extract of your choice.
Ingredients
- cooking spray
- 2.5 cups white sugar
- 1 can evaporated milk , 12 fluid ounce
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
-
1
Coat a 9x9-inch baking pan with cooking spray.
-

Bring sugar and evaporated milk to a boil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until syrup reaches 234 degrees F (110 degrees C), 5 to 7 minutes. A teaspoon of hot syrup dropped into a glass of cold water should form a soft ball of candy.

Remove from heat; immediately stir in peanut butter, butter, and vanilla extract, stirring constantly until smooth and thick. Pour fudge into the prepared pan. Cool before slicing into squares.
