Ingredients You Will Need
How to Make the Homemade Candy
Step 1: Place the butter and the peanut butter in a medium saucepan on medium heat.
Steps 2-3: Stir as the peanut butter and the butter combine and melt together.
Step 4: Bring the peanut mixture to a boil and then allow it to boil for 1 minute. Take the pan off the heat.
Step 5: Add the Vanilla Extract.
Step 6: Mix until combined.
Step 7: Add the Powdered Sugar.
Step 8: Mix until thoroughly combined.
Step 9: Butter an 8×8″ baking pan and pour the peanut butter fudge mixture into the pan.
Step 10: Press the fudge down into the pan.
Step 11: Working quickly, use the back of a spoon or an offset spatula to spread the mixture out to the edge of the pan.
Step 12: Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until fully set (2-3 hours or overnight.)
Storage/Serving Instructions
Step 13: Remove from the refrigerator and cut into individual pieces. Store in the refrigerator in an air-tight container but we think Fudge tastes best served at room temperature. It should only take about an hour for the fudge to come back up to room temperature.
