My Grandma raised her kids in the depression. When we came along she was still making this. This is the same as her recipe (she used canned milk but I don't usually have that on hand so I use regular whole milk) and I turn this on when I make it and do it with you. *She did the ice in the water just like you to keep checking for the softball stage - this is how I teach my kids too! I miss my Grandma and doing it with you triggers such wonderful memories! Thank you Robin!

Thank you so much! I so appreciate your sharing your precious memories with me. You are blessed with memories of a wonderful Grandma. You are so sweet to include me in making the fudge, thank you. I am deeply touched. God bless you in all your ways.

THIS IS A WINNER!! I made this peanut butter fudge for our family Christmas celebration. I have an accurate Thermapen thermometer. If you heat the mixture to 234 degrees then add the butter and vanilla to help stop the cooking (and immediately stir in the peanut butter), you will get perfect fudge every time. I like the fact that you can pour it hot into a buttered glass pyrex right after you stir in the peanut butter without cooling it. Some chocolate fudge recipes require the mixture to be cooled to 120 degrees and then beat the mixture. This is definitely easier. I used a generous cup of peanut butter, and three tablespoons of Watkins vanilla. Bon Appetit!!

My mom passed away in August this year and she always made peanut butter fudge. I didn't think I would ever be able to make it myself with her gone until I ran across your video. I was very surprised and happy to see that you make your fudge exactly the way she did. Once I saw your cold water and heard you say "soft ball " I knew it was like mom's.

I made that many batches of peanut brittle. No good ones. Finally my 80 year old friend wouldn't even let me look at peanut brittle she was making. Lol

Words can not explain what this vedio did for me. My mom made this exact fudge for me as I grew up. Birthdays and Christmas only. It was such a treat. But she showed me one time how to make but to be honest I did not pay close enough attention. Then she suffered a stroke and passed. As I watched this vedio it was like I was watching her. You did everything just the way she did. Even the wooden spoon. When I seen the finished fudge I said is there anyway...well I watched the vedio 3 times and cried. Then tried it. IT IS MY MOMS FUDGE. My kids took a bit and began crying too. They are teenagers and remember it. Thanks to you we will have fudge for Christmas again. And just in time. True Christmas miracle. Also my mom said little is much when God is in it ALL the time. That just showed me God was in it. This vedio made my whole Christmas. It is a priceless gift for our family. Words can never say how much we Thankyou.

My Mom made this recipe and it is a very good recipe. I like one other of the responders have a bad back and it is hard for me to stand that long. Have you tried the easy fudge recipe? The one I use now is 1 cup of butter, 1cup peanut butter. I tsp of vanilla and two cups confectioners sugar. I melt the butter and peanut butter in the microwave. Remove and add 1 tsp vanilla and then add two cups of confectioners sugar or one box. You then pour it into your 8x8 greased pan and I do refrigerate mine. Prep takes 5 min and ready to cut in an hour. No boiling or having to form soft balls and to me just as good. When my Mom was living and I was young, I really could care less about cooking, but now I have a love of it and she is gone now. Do you make old fashioned divinity? My Mom always made it for Christmas and for friends who lost family members who have lost loved ones. I would love to learn how to make this. Thanks for opening up your home and sharing your wonderful recipes.

I just happened to see this today. I’ve made peanut butter fudge for years. My recipe is similar but in smaller amounts. I use 2 cups sugar, 2/3 cup milk and 1/8 tsp. cream of tartar. After it comes to a rolling boil, stir it constantly for 6 1/2 minutes. Test in the cold water for the soft ball stage, but the time doesn’t vary much. Take off the stove and add 2 tablespoons of butter and 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter. Have these things ready before you start cooking the milk and sugar. As the peanut butter and butter are melting, add 1 tsp. of vanilla. When all melted, pour into buttered dish. You need to work fast so it doesn’t harden in the pan. Pour into a buttered glass pie plate. Yours looks great, except I don’t care for the chunky peanut butter. For many years, I have sent my brother a batch of peanut butter and chocolate fudge for his birthday and Christmas. He said my last batch was the best ever!

Reminds me of my Grandmothers peanut butter fudge, which is a family fav. She used creamy peanut butter, and I think I will too. But thanks so much for the awesome step by step video! Yummy!! :)

How awesome. Thanks for your comment. I will definitely thank my granddaughter. Merry Christmas To You and yours.

Yum, I like old fashioned recipes. They taste better. And yes when God is in it it is better. 😋

Made this last night, it's amazing! I think it's more what we (in Northern Ireland) would call butter tablet. It's like a crumbly fudge, but it's oh so delicious!

You are welcome Killer! I may have to try the extra PB. That sound awesome. Good tip.

I have made this fudge as a teen for my brothers and loved it, however when I had my own family and was also giving fudge gifts at Christmas, I switched to the same method and ingredients but added marshmellows and crunchy peatnut butter which I prefer. But I make your version for one of my brothers each year as he prefers it and the memories. Thanks for reminding me, you really do a good job of explaining so anyone should be able to make this!

Sunshine Baker Thank you very much. I too would rather have crunchy peanut butter but many people in my family prefer the smooth peanut butter instead. It’s good of you to make it for your brother I’m sure he really appreciates it. God bless and and thanks again.❤️

Yum. Reminds me of making a similar chocolate fudge with my grandmother in the early 70s... wish I had her recipe. She always poured it into aluminum pie tins for reasons I never understood, but makes me think of her every time I see one. Thanks for the memories !

Mulligan Farms you are very welcome. My mom used to make that chocolate fudge too with cocoa. Those were the days before they made chocolate fudge with marshmallow cream. I believe the recipe used to be on the Hershey‘s cocoa can. I don’t know if it still is. I think it’s not only fun but good to know how to make things the old way. Thanks for watching and as always thanks for commenting. Have a great day!

Yes with cocoa that's right. Definitely no marshmallow, and I remember it has a bit of a grainy texture as it set up. Absolutely a good idea to know the old ways. Need to start working my way through my 1956 copy of Betty Crocker's Picture Cookbook. Just love the stories in it too.

Fantastic recipe! I just watched your video and tried it out myself. All I had was a thin bottom pan so I brought to a boil stirring rapidly over medium high heat on my gas range. Then dropped to a slow boil on medium low, closer to low, heat until I reached soft ball stage. I pulled off at 232°f I also tried the cold water bath and at 232°f it was dead on to what you showed. I never left it sit though do to my thin bottom pan. I can tell by the scrapings this recipe is phenomenal. Thank you so very much, God bless you! 🤗

She did it to show the audience, demonstrate it!

I just put a little puddle of ice water on my counter and drop a few drops of mixture and when it is a soft little ball it's done 7-8 minutes. My recipe uses margarine and whole milk. I always start out melting the margarine add a little milk ,the 3 cups of sugar and 10 tlbs of milk so I'm anxious to try this.

mschilepepper10 thanks! I have never really made chocolate fudge except the marshmallow type. I grew up with a chocolate fudge made with Hershey‘s cocoa sugar milk etc. I am not a chocolate lover so perhaps that’s the reason I haven’t made it very much. I will do some research on the subject and perhaps I’ll find a good old-fashioned fudge recipe to try for you. Thank you so much for taking the time to comment and watch the channel.👍
