Ingredients
- 3 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.75 cup Unsalted butter
- 0.67 cup Evaporated milk
- 1.5 cups Creamy peanut butter
- 7 ounces Marshmallow creme
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
Prepare a 9x9-inch pan by lining it with aluminum foil or parchment paper and lightly greasing it with butter or nonstick spray. Set aside.
Step 2
In a medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the granulated sugar, unsalted butter, evaporated milk, and salt over medium heat. Stir frequently to dissolve the sugar and melt the butter.
Step 3
Bring the mixture to a boil while stirring constantly. Once boiling, continue cooking for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring constantly, until the mixture reaches 234°F (soft-ball stage) on a candy thermometer.
Step 4
Remove the saucepan from heat. Immediately stir in the peanut butter, marshmallow creme, and vanilla extract. Stir vigorously until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Step 5
Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Step 6
Allow the fudge to cool and set at room temperature for at least 2 hours, or refrigerate for 1 hour for faster setting.
Step 7
Once the fudge is firm, remove it from the pan using the foil or parchment as a sling. Cut into 36 squares for serving.
Step 8
Store the fudge in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week or in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
