Melt-in-your-mouth, heavenly Soft & Creamy Peanut Butter Fudge is a definite, permanent fixture on the sweet tooth menu for all those holiday events and parties. It's also a definite, permanent fixture favorite of my daughter, Amber and my mom, especially.
Sometimes I don't get how, neither one eat peanut butter sandwiches or peanut butter right out of the jar, but they love peanut butter fudge?
And, when there's Amish Peanut Butter Pie around the house, they hop high on that bus too.
It's weird, SO, I'm not judging OK? Just observing. 🙂 LOL...We all seem to have our funny food quirks, don't we?
You absolutely should make this Soft & Creamy Peanut Butter Fudge. It's super-easy to make and it's so rich and delicious.
Make a couple of batches and give them out as gifts, or on a holiday platter with an assortment of other candies and cookies. It's so dang good!

Soft & Creamy Peanut Butter Fudge

- 2 cups brown sugar
- ½ cup milk
- 1 cup creamy Jif peanut butter or crunchy
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups confectioners' sugar sifted
Instructions
- Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
- Stir in brown sugar and milk and bring to a slow boil.
- Continue stirring frequently for 2 minutes, while mixture is boiling.
- Remove from heat and stir in peanut butter and vanilla.

- Using a mixer, beat until smooth and pour into an 8x8 inch dish.
- Chill until firm and cut into squares.
Notes
There are a number of reasons why the fudge was grainy. It might be that you haven’t dissolved all the sugar before boiling the fudge mixture. It could be that there just wasn’t enough fluid or fat to enable the sugar to dissolve or it might even be that the fudge wasn’t beaten long enough or hard enough. All of these factors could be the cause of grainy fudge. I hope this works out for you though Dawn! xo
Aww thank yo so much! Happy Holidays!
I'm speaking my text I meant a creamy moist fudge LOL
I always end up with hard dry fudge what causes that?? I haven't tried this recipe yet I'm looking for a creamy voice bunch okay this one will get me the results
Hi Jen,
I haven't tried it, so not sure. If I did try it, I would use just a little less evaporated milk since it's watered down. Happy Holidays!
Can I use evaporated milk

I actually believe I have never even made fudge, though I've definitely eaten my fair share! My boys would LOVE this, they are peanut butter fans! Thanks for sharing the recipe with us at Merry Monday!
Thank you Carlee!
That is funny that they won't eat peanut butter, but will eat the fudge and the pie. Not that I can blame them, this fudge looks amazing. I'm not sure I can make it though, I am afraid I will eat WAY too much!
