Ingredients:

  • 3 2/3 cups powdered sugar , sifted

  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter

  5. With a hand-held mixer, beat at medium-high speed until smooth.

  7. With a rubber spatula, turn out into previously greased cake pan and spread evenly.
  8. Chill for 1 hour or until solid.
  9. Cut into squares.
  10. Store refrigerated for up to two weeks (that is if it makes it that long!).
  11. VARIATIONS: Peanut Butter Fudge-omit cocoa powder, compensate for lack of dry ingredient with 2 tbs. extra powdered sugar and cook as directed. Chocolate Fudge-omit peanut butter, compensate for lack of moist ingredient with 2 extra tbs. butter and cook as directed.
