Original recipe makes 24
5 oz.evaporated milk
3 cupsgranulated sugar
4 tbspbutter; not margarine
12 oz.peanut butter; creamy
1 tbspvanilla
7 oz.marshmallow cream
1 cupice water

Peanut Butter Fudge Preparation

Spray a 9x13x2 baking pan with non-stick cooking spray.

Bring sugar, milk and butter to a rolling boil over medium heat; stir constantly. Once mixture starts to boil, allow to cook for approximately 3 minutes, before checking the consistency of the syrup. With ice water in a small bowl, allow the syrup to drop off the spoon into the ice water (one to two drops). Check consistency of mixture. If it is rubbery (like a chocolate chew), syrup is done. If it's not, allow it to cook for no more than two more minutes.

Once syrup reaches the correct consistency (234 degrees F), remove from heat. Add vanilla, marshmallow cream and peanut butter and stir until well combined. Pour into prepared pan. Allow to cool to room temperature and cut into squares (about 24 per pan or 3 lbs of fudge).

If you choose to use a candy themometer, make sure the bulb doesn't touch the bottom of your pan.
If you don't have marshmallow cream available, I've substituted 12 oz. mini marshmallows that worked out great! You can also add 1/2 cup chopped nuts to make this even more delicious! [I posted this recipe.]
