Pin Recipe
8 tablespoons unsalted butter 2 cups brown sugar ½ cup milk 1 cup creamy peanut butter 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract 3 cups powdered sugar
Measure all ingredients first so they are ready to be added. Put the powdered sugar into a large mixing bowl.
3 cups powdered sugar
Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat; stir in brown sugar and milk. Bring to a boil and boil hard for 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
2 cups brown sugar, ½ cup milk, 8 tablespoons unsalted butter
Remove the pot from heat. Stir in peanut butter and vanilla until smooth.
1 cup creamy peanut butter, 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Pour the peanut butter mixture into the powdered sugar, making sure to scrape everything out of the pot.
Beat with an electric hand mixer until smooth.
Scrape into a lined 8x8 pan and smooth into an even layer. Cover and chill until firm, at least 1 hour.
Turn out and slice into squares. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2 weeks.
It will take at least an hour to chill the fudge until firm enough to cut. Don't rush it!
