Rose Goble, of Winamac, Indiana, says her aunt received this treasured family recipe from a co-worker who brought it in regularly for office potlucksâbut only after the co-worker retired! Ingredients:
1 teaspoon plus 1/2 cup butter, divided |
1 cup chunky peanut butter |
1 package (8 ounces) process cheese (velveeta), cubed |
1 package (2 pounds) confectioners' sugar |
1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
Directions:
1. Line a 13-in. x 9-in. pan with foil and grease the foil with 1 teaspoon butter; set aside. 2. In a large heavy saucepan, combine the peanut butter, cheese and remaining butter. Cook and stir over medium heat until melted. Remove from the heat. Gradually stir in confectioners' sugar and vanilla until blended (mixture will be thick). 3. Spread into prepared pan. Chill for 2 hours or until firm. 4. Using foil, lift fudge out of pan. Discard foil; cut fudge into 1-in. squares. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Yield: 3 pounds. |
