I've made this recipe over 4 times, on the last making I reduced both sugars to 3/ 4 cup each & left the rest of the ingreds. the same & it came out great...Had more of a peanut butter taste...(used a heaping 1 1/2 cup of peanut butter)

Very good, easy to make..Next time will try using half & half for the milk. I used a heaping 1& 1/2 cup of peanut butter..Was amazed how fast cooking went even on medium heat! Will be making again soon.

Finally!!!

I have been trying to find a good Peanut Butter Fudge recipe off and on for years!

The results have been - too dry, too sweet, blah, broke a wooden spoon trying to get it out of the pan, etc., etc.!! But, I knew there had to be a 'good' one somewhere!

Eureka - I found it!!

Quick - Easy - Smooth - Creamy - Fantastic - Enjoyed by all!!

I did use 1/2 and 1/2 instead of milk.

Next time I will use dark brown sugar to see if it turns out more like the color of the photo.

I enjoyed seeing 'real' smiles on faces this year instead of 'fake' ones in past years when I tried to 'force feed other PB fudge'!!!

10 stars if I could!!

Instead of creamy I used crunchy peanut butter for more texture. Turned out great, and only took 5 minutes!

I am giving this 2 stars because it tasted good. It took forever to melt the marsh. I had to throw it away as it never set up. I followed the recipe exactly so I don't know what happened.SJS9

This is the easiest fudge I've ever made! And it's so delicious! I just made it last weekend and I plan on making it again this weekend for a potluck. I just love quick, easy recipes like this one!
