Absolutely the BEST peanut butter fudge I've ever eaten. It was so easy to make and turned out perfectly. Thank you so much for posting this recipe! I will definitely be using this for many years to come.

I made this fudge to the recipe and it never set up. I would have given it a lower rating but did not since it had so many other good ratings. I tried another recipe and it came out fine.

This is the best recipe ever. It's not gritty at all. It's very smooth and creamy. This will be the recipe I use from now on. Thank you so much for submitting it.

LOVE this recipe!! Love that it does not use marshmallows..... I did substitute the extra peanut butter and decrease the confectioner's sugar as posted by the reviews. My husband and friends all rave about this recipe.

We loved it. Used mini marshmallows, but followed otherwise.

Very smooth, melt in your mouth fudge. It did set up on me pretty quick after adding the marshmallow cream and I had to hurry to get it into the pan. I'm not new to making fudge so I watched the time pretty close but I think I left it on the heat just a hair too long. It was still great. As my husband put it - not sickening sweet, not too peanut buttery - creamy and just right.

Yum! This fudge recipe rocks!! One small word of caution, what I call a medium saucepan is WAY TOO SMALL to contain the sugar mixture once its been boiling for awhile. I had to make an emergency "mid-boil" switch into a bigger pot as my sugar boiled over! Yikes!!! {the fudge was still divine...!}

I have just made this; however, I couldn't stand to look at the color, so, I added 2 cups of chocolate chips....Very tasty!...Grandkids & kids will think it is awesome, I am certain...I tasted it and I certainly do. I used crunchy peanut butter and topped the fudge with chopped pecans...very good!

Great recipe! This fudge is easy to make and the brown sugar gives it a little richer taste. The only thing I would do differently next time to make it easier to remove the fudge after it has set up, is that I would line the baking pan with foil and grease the foil with butter. I followed the recipe exactly and cooked 7 minutes from full rolling boil, tested a drop of fudge in ice water to ascertain it had reached soft ball stage and it was perfect. If you're not experienced at making fudge, candy thermometers are inexpensive and help assure you've cooked long enough, etc.

I would have gave this five stars for taste but I cooked mine too long and it turned out dry and crumbly.

First time I had no candy thermometer - terrible. I cooked it too long and by the time I got to mixing the PB it was solidifying on me. SOO...got a candy thermometer the next time. I also read from another fudge review about mixing up the PB and Marshmellow cream and this also worked like a charm. This time - creamy goodness!!! I will never try to make fudge again without a candy thermometer. I also like lining the pan with foil instead of greasing it up.

I followed this recipe to the tee. I know how fickle fudge can be. I should not have trusted it, and used the soft ball in cold water method to test it before adding the final ingredients. I figured with such a high rating, and not suggesting to test it, the fudge would have set fine. I just ended up with an expensive mess. On the bright side, it tasted good. If it had set it would have been wonderful!

I have been making this fudge for the last few years for Cristmas gifts. I love it ! And I don't have any problems with getting it to come out right folowing the instructions. I prepare all the ingredients before I start cooking and it's all ready to blend in at the right time. I love the peanut butter taste, and the creamy texture of this fudge.

My grandma used to make this every fall. I could never find her recipe (probably was in her head). This is it!!!! Easy and tasty, but you do have to watch the temps on a candy thermometer as suggested by another poster.

Excellent! As I was making the fudge, I realized that I only had a 5 oz can of evaporated milk, so I used that, and then filled up the can 1.5 times with milk, and it was so good! I also used crunchy peanut butter because, again, it's what I had on hand. I had no problem with a gritty texture or with it not setting up. The only problem that I'm having is that me & the family can't stop eating it!

This recipe is good but I have tasted better. It set up well but I could definitely taste the brown sugar. I had to use a reduced fat peanut butter because I accidently picked up a jar of extra crunchy at the stor and I really wanted a smooth fudge. I may try this again with regular peanut butter.
