Ingredients
- Non-stick vegetable spray
- 1/4 cup roasted, unsalted peanuts, coarsely chopped
- 1 cup milk
- 2 1/2 cups sugar
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 6 ounces creamy peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Line an 8-by-8-inch baking pan with aluminum foil and lightly grease with vegetable spray. Sprinkle the peanuts over the bottom of the pan. Put the milk and sugar in a medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan fitted with a candy thermometer. Boil over medium heat, occasionally stirring to keep from sticking. Cook until the mixture reaches 240 degrees F (soft ball). Remove from the heat and gently place the butter, peanut butter and vanilla in the pan, taking care not to disturb the syrup. Do not stir. Let the mixture cool down for 5 minutes, then beat vigorously with a spoon or the flat beater of a stationary mixer until dense and smooth. Turn the fudge into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly with a metal spatula. With a sharp knife, score into portions. Let set, 45 minutes then cut into 1 1/3-inch squares.

Reviews
Fudge would not harden.
Weird recipe but it worked and it was delish! I’d make it again
Its a keeper – very tasty. Just remember to get it up to at least 240 or its overly soft.
Never did get thick. It turned out like soup. I followed the recipe to a tee.
This fudge is amazing. It’s SO easy and tastes great. WOW! I just love it. I will DEFINATELY make it over and over again. Definately Use this one!!!
This was the worst recipe I have ever tasted. I threw up almost all day. All I have to say is GROSS!!!!!!!!!!!
I’ve made this several times. It is smooth and creamy, absolutely delicious. And it has never failed to turn out(unlike my many other attempts at fudge). Thank you Wayne, you are a champ!
Excellent fudge and I am terrible at making fudge, but this is easy (even for me)
had trouble with over boil but fixed with low heat. very much worth the result!
pb yummy
