Tips:

  • Use a good quality peanut butter. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your fudge. Look for a peanut butter that is made with 100% peanuts and no added sugar or salt.
  • Don't overcook the fudge. The fudge should be cooked until it reaches a soft ball stage, which is about 235 degrees Fahrenheit. If you overcook it, the fudge will become too hard and brittle.
  • Let the fudge cool completely before cutting it. This will help the fudge to set properly and prevent it from crumbling.
  • Store the fudge in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. The fudge will keep for up to 2 weeks.
