My brother actually got this recipe 30 years ago. I've been making it forever and it is always loved, and requested at any gathering. Easy, and doesn't need candy thermometer.

How To Make peanut butter fudge
-
Step 1Mix all JIF peanut butter, salt, vanilla and 10x confectioner's sugar together in large bowl with electric mixer until well blended.
-
Step 2While mixing, melt the 3 sticks of butter in the microwave.
-
Step 3Add the melted butter to the sugar mix, and mix well and fast. It will be a sticky consistency. Dump into a 9x13 pan and using your hand - pat/smash across the bottom of the pan and smooth out top.
-
Step 4Put into refrigerator to cool. Ready to eat in 15+ minutes.
-
Step 5For smooth fudge, use smooth peanut butter. For nutty fudge, use chunky peanut butter. Decorate with sprinkles and press down into top for decorating, before refrigerating. I use sprinkles based on the holday - red/white/blue for 4th of July, green/red for Christmas, orange/black for Halloween, etc. I've also melted chocolate chips and poured over the cooled top, gives a Reese's peanut butter cup flavor!
-
Step 6NOTE: If you put foil in pan before fudge mixture, you can lift out on the counter and use a pizza cutter to cut this and it goes very fast. I only recommend JIF peanut butter and margarine, not butter. I've given this recipe out in the past and people have changed those ingredients and it doesn't come out the same.
