  1. Super yummy, and I got the comment a lot that it almost had a butterscotch taste to it. I also discovered it's delicious with pretzels hehe. I used Simply Jiff (lower sugar amounts) and it still was pretty sweet. Since I made some chocolate fudge (15304) I had to try them together and it was amazing. Oh and mixing in my lumpy confectioner's sugar was a pain in the butt. Maybe I should have sifted it first, because I had to use our little manual hand mixer to get it to mix in all the way. I hope no one else runs into that haha. It was worth it tho. Thanks for sharing :)
     
  2. Very tasty and very easy. Set up without any refrigeration. Based upon other's suggestions, I reduced brown sugar to 2 cups, powdered sugar to 3 cups, and upped peanut butter to a full cup. I also used heavy cream for the milk, since I had some extra in the fridge (that, or it would have been skim milk. Skim milk and fudge seem to be the antithesis of each other.) Thanks!
     
  3. YUM!!! I switched the brown sugar to 2 cups and upped the peanut butter to 1 full cup like others suggested. I felt like this came out a little dry-but I think that it was my fault. I wasn't paying allot of attention to the time after it started boiling. Hubby and my 14yr old son had the pan eaten in less then a day and are asking for more already!
     
  4. YUMMO! This is a great recipe! I love it! Very smooth and delish. I did use 2 c brown sugar, a scant cup of PB, 3 c of powd sugar then I added 1/2 pkg butterscotch chips. YUM!
     
  5. Wonderful! I too cut down on brown sugar and powdered sugar and increased peanut butter. Used a wisk and stirred constantly for 2 minutes at a rolling boil. Set up fine without putting in fridge. So easy and so good!

  2. I added 1/2 teaspoon salt with the peanut butter to help balance out the sweetness.
