Ingredients

Directions

  1. Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with parchment paper or wax paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.
  2. In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the sugar, evaporated milk, and butter over medium heat.
  3. Stir constantly until the butter melts and the mixture comes to a rolling boil.
  4. Once boiling, cook for exactly 1 minute, stirring continuously to prevent scorching.
  5. Immediately remove the saucepan from the heat.
  6. Quickly stir in the peanut butter and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
  7. Pour the hot mixture into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  8. Let the fudge cool at room temperature for about 20-30 minutes, until it is slightly set but still warm.
  9. Cut into squares while still slightly warm to ensure clean cuts, then allow to cool completely before lifting out of the pan.
  10. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks.
