Original Recipe Yield 36 1 inch square
 

Ingredients

  • 2 cups brown sugar
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 1/2 cups creamy peanut butter
  • 1 tablespoon margarine
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons vanilla extract

Directions

  1. Mix brown and white sugar with the milk in large pot; bring mixture to a boil. Stir in peanut butter, reduce heat to medium and bring the mixture back to boil (stirring constantly). Remove the pot from heat when a drop of the mixture forms a ball in a glass of cold water.
  2. Stir margarine and vanilla into the mixture; stir vigorously until the fudge hardens. ( Always stir in same direction.) Pour fudge onto buttered plates or waxed paper. Let cool and cut into 1 inch pieces.
