After adding the peanut butter we found that the "fudge" was extremely dry. To fix that issue we just added a bit of the evaporated milk until it became stirrable and sort of pourable. We then kneaded the "fudge" on wax paper until it was a good consistency and poured into pan to cool.

After reading the reviews I was afraid of a mess, but it came out pretty excellent. Reading the reviews taught me what the soft ball stage was, and also I took the suggestion to add vanilla flavouring. Make sure to refridgerate to make more solidified. So yummy.

I did everything as the recipe says and while it taste fine, it is hard a a rock and not at all like fudge! Next time I think I will either try as some others have said and use powdered sugar or just get a new recipe all together :(

I have not tried it yet, but the picture does not jive with the recipe stating to mix the peanut butter with the chocolate. It was confusing me, people need to know it is not a layered fudge

I did not care for this. Did not turn out. Sugary mess. Should have listened to reviews.

I added a photo today of this recipe; the texture is right and the flavor is right... but it's just not as glossy as I expected it to be. I think that next time, I'll increase the peanut butter and see if the extra oils help.

Worked for me. Good texture, nice flavor. I would add vanilla next time, and cut down on the sugar. (I know, it's fudge!)

This a very easy recipe. But I replaced the 3 cups of sugar with 2 and half. and 1cup of Peanut Butter. Perfect

The recipe, as it's written, is a great basic fudge recipe. I was looking for an "old fashioned" recipe, without marshmallows or sweetened condensed milk & this was THE one! I did try substituting powdered sugar a couple of times like some other reviewers suggested... but each time, the fudge didn't set properly. But when I tried the granulated sugar (as recipe suggests), it turned out beautifully. Smooth... not grainy & set up really well. I didn't place the granulated sugar batches in the fridge though until AFTER it had set. Not sure if that made the difference or not. For my best batch of fudge, I reduced the sugar to 2 3/4 c. & increased the peanut butter to 1 cup. I used reduced fat Jif & it made no difference at all... also used dark cocoa instead of regular and it was not only delicious, but the dark color made it look even more scrumptious! Thanks for a great fudge recipe... I will definitely be making this one again!
