This is my mothers basic recipe for peanut butter fudge. The taste is marvelous but it's not something you want to eat on a regular basis if your watching your weight!
Butter your cooling pan first!
Add sugar and enough milk to moisten it to pan. Heat on Medium till it comes to a hard boil.
STIR CONSTANTLY you don't want it to burn, just to caramelize slightly.
Add the vanilla as soon as the sugar starts to boil!
Keep at a hard boil for about on minute or slightly longer (depending on how caramelized you want it. Varying this effects the taste and texture a lot. From light caramelized with a creamy texture and taste to a roasted nutty taste with a harder more crystallized candy like texture. Experiment!)
Now add the peanut butter (I prefer crunchy but either will do.) Stir it in thoroughly.
Put it back on the burner until hard boil begins again.
Immediately and quickly pour into buttered pan to cool.
After it cools cut into about 1 inch squares.
