75 Reviews of Peanut Butter Fudge

This is by far the best fudge I've ever had - and I worked at a cafe/bakery that made fantastic fudge! This is the first time I've ever attempted it, though. And I was nervous at first - because I have to make everything healthier...and I doubted fudge would survive my ways...so I went easy. Insted of 1/2 cup butter, I did 1/4 cup butter and 1/4 cup light Smart Balance. I was most worried about using the Smart Balance because of its low fat content. Also, I cut back on the brown sugar 1/2 cup. And I used all-natural peanut butter and skim milk. With all these provisions, I figured it wouldn't even turn to fudge-like consistency, but it did! I also melted chocolate and mixed it with milk and spread it on top of the fudge. A+++

    Without a doubt, this is the BEST Peanut Butter Fudge I have ever tasted. Very fast and easy to make. Even if you are not an experienced candy-maker, you can make this fudge and impress all your friends! I made one pan of it and cut it into squares like regular fudge. The next pan I made, I rolled my cut pieces into little balls and dipped them in melted chocolate. Wow! Talk about good.........my family loves both versions. Thanks for sending it in. It's a definite keeper!

    Love this! It is so easy. I have made it three times now. The last time I made it, I followed a previous reviewers idea of cutting the brown sugar to 2 cups and the powdered sugar to 3 cups, then increasing the peanut butter to 1 cup. It was wonderful! I haven't needed to refrigerate it to get it to firm up. For those of you that have had trouble getting it to set, make sure that when you boil it for the two minutes, that it is at a rolling boil before you set the timer, and stir it constantly!

    Amazing fudge. Quick and easy and almost fool-proof! I took other reviewer's suggestions and used 2 c. brown sugar, 1 c. PB and 3 c powdered sugar and it was ready and set in less than 10 minutes. Gone are the days of waiting to make my mom's fudge when the temperature and humidity outside are just right! Thanks for this recipe!

    I loved this peanut butter fudge! I made it for a Christmas party my husband and I had last weekend. I made it a weekend before and froze it. I had read somewhere that you could wrap it in wax paper, then foil and then in a ziplock and it will last months. It was great and we will definitely be making this again!

    I made this fudge last night and it was awsome! I bought my mother some peanut butter fudge from a candy store for her birthday and she thought mine was much better. Thanks for a great and easy recipe. I will be making this often.

    Just what I was looking for! Perfect, peanut buttery and creamy. Just like my mom's old recipe, maybe better. This recipe was really a find...so many recipes out there use marshmallow creme. This one is a hit, try it!

    I happened to have some no sugar added peanutbutter in my fridge that was dated for the end of this month, so I dumped some of that into the pot. It turned out fabulous! This fudge was easy to make and is some of the best pb fudge I have ever tasted. Thank you!!!

    Wonderful! Excellent! Easy! This was great. The fudge turns out creamy and smooth. We kept it in the fridge and it kept for about a week. This will be made again and again! Thanks for posting!
