Ingredients

  • 3 cups Granulated sugar
  • 0.75 cup Unsalted butter
  • 0.67 cup Evaporated milk
  • 1.5 cups Creamy peanut butter
  • 7 ounces Marshmallow creme
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 0.25 teaspoon Salt

Directions

Step 1

Prepare a 9x9-inch pan by lining it with aluminum foil or parchment paper and lightly greasing it with butter or nonstick spray. Set aside.

Step 2

In a medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the granulated sugar, unsalted butter, evaporated milk, and salt over medium heat. Stir frequently to dissolve the sugar and melt the butter.

Step 3

Bring the mixture to a boil while stirring constantly. Once boiling, continue cooking for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring constantly, until the mixture reaches 234°F (soft-ball stage) on a candy thermometer.

Step 4

Remove the saucepan from heat. Immediately stir in the peanut butter, marshmallow creme, and vanilla extract. Stir vigorously until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

Step 5

Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.

Step 6

Allow the fudge to cool and set at room temperature for at least 2 hours, or refrigerate for 1 hour for faster setting.

Step 7

Once the fudge is firm, remove it from the pan using the foil or parchment as a sling. Cut into 36 squares for serving.

Step 8

Store the fudge in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week or in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
