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.
Ingredients
- 1 pound powdered sugar
- 1.25 cups unsalted butter
- 1.5 cups creamy peanut butter
- 0.5 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
-
1
Sift sugar through a fine-mesh strainer into a large bowl.
-
2
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.
-
3
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.
-
4
Unwrap fudge and cut into small cubes. Let warm up on the counter before cutting if needed.

Southern Red Velvet Cake
This is a delicious red velvet cake recipe that was taught to me by my grandmother. Made with a light and buttery frosting instead of the usual cream cheese. It's a little time consuming but totally worth the effort!
Turkish Chicken Kebabs
This chicken kebab recipe uses a flavorful, yogurt-based marinade. I'd like to think that all the chicken coming off American grills this summer will be as tasty, juicy, and tender as these. Even inexperienced grillers can produce impressive results! It's loosely based on a lamb marinade I've used for a long time.
Easy Air Fryer Pork Chops
