Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

1/2 lb sliced easy-melt velveeta cheese, only
1 c butter-like she would use anything else!
1 c peanut butter, creamy
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 c chopped walnuts
2 lb powdered sugar

Steps:

1. Lightly spray the bottom of a 9-inch square pan with non stick cook spray- the butter kind. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt cheese and butter together, then add peanut butter and stir until smooth. Remove from heat and add vanilla and nuts. Empty powdered sugar into a large bowl and pour cheese mixture over sugar. Stir until completely mixed. Candy will be very stiff. Using your hands, remove candy from the bowl and press evenly and firmly into the pan. Because of the amount of BUTTER in this recipe, pat top of candy with a paper towel to remove any excess oil. Place pan in refrigerator until candy is firm. Cut into squares to serve.

Tips:

Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan to prevent the fudge from burning.
Cook the fudge mixture to the correct temperature. If the mixture is not cooked to a high enough temperature, the fudge will be too soft. If the mixture is cooked to too high a temperature, the fudge will be too hard.
Stir the fudge mixture constantly to prevent it from scorching.
Use a candy thermometer to ensure that the fudge mixture reaches the correct temperature.
Let the fudge cool completely before cutting it into pieces.

Conclusion:
