Creamy Peanut Butter Fudge

Description: My mother in law always sends us various flavors of fudge for Christmas. The package can get prety expensive so she gave me the recipes so I could make them myself.

Ingredients:

• 2 cups granulated sugar
• 2/3 cup milk
• 1 cup marshmallow creme
• 1 cup creamy peanut butter or 1 cup chunky peanut butter
• 1 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

1. Boil sugar and milk in a medium saucepan, stirring occasionally, to soft ball stage*, or about 236* on a candy thermometer.
2. Remove from heat and stir in remaining ingredients.
3. Pour candy into a greased 8x8 inch pan and chill. Cut peanut butter fudge into squares when cool and firm.
4. *To Test for Soft Ball Stage.
5. A small amount of syrup dropped into chilled water forms a ball, but is soft enough to flatten when picked up with fingers (234* to 240*).
