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!

Notes
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
I’m speaking my text I meant a creamy moist fudge LOL
Aww thank yo so much! Happy Holidays!
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
Can I use evaporated milk
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!

So glad you enjoyed it Bobbie! 🙂 Merry Christmas!!
