AMISH PEANUT BUTTER FUDGE

This one is easy and only three ingredients. Sent in by Mrs. Ray Yutzy I made it and it was not only a nice easy fudge but sat up fast and didn't taste like sugar like some do. Was a nice fudge but work fast as it was setting in the pan.

GRANDMA'S CREAMY PEANUT BUTTER FUDGE

This old-fashioned style of peanut butter fudge is not that easy to find out there. The ones I tend to run across always seem to be the soft, creamy version, which is not what I'm into. If it's going to feel like peanut butter in my mouth, then what's the point? No, I want something that feels dense and firm in my fingers but will almost instantly liquefy in when it hits my tongue.

AMISH PEANUT BUTTER SPREAD

Different from the other recipes because it uses Mrs. Butterworth's Syrup instead of plain Karo. I found this recipe in a cookbook I bought from a Montana Amish (Yes we have Amish in Montana!) Kitchen/Diner called The Dinnerbell Bakery and Banquets Cook Book. Seriously sinful this spread usually doesn't make it to the bread or pancakes. And of course it makes a HUGE batch, after all it IS an Amish recipe. This is probably where they get the saying "Taste makes Waist".

Tips for Making Amish Peanut Butter Fudge:

  • Use high-quality peanut butter: The type of peanut butter you use will greatly impact the flavor of your fudge. Choose a natural peanut butter that is made with 100% peanuts and no added sugars or oils.
  • Don't overcook the fudge: The fudge is done when it reaches a temperature of 234 degrees Fahrenheit (112 degrees Celsius). If you overcook it, it will become grainy and crumbly.
  • Let the fudge cool completely before cutting it: This will help to prevent the fudge from crumbling. You can speed up the cooling process by placing the fudge in the refrigerator or freezer.
  • Store the fudge in an airtight container: This will help to keep the fudge fresh and prevent it from drying out. You can store the fudge at room temperature for up to two weeks, or in the refrigerator for up to one month.

Conclusion:

Amish peanut butter fudge is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With its rich peanut butter flavor and creamy texture, this fudge is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give this Amish peanut butter fudge recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
