Hey Sweet Feet , I'm about to make 5 or 6 batches of what you are talking about in a couple days here. I call it "Farmer Fudge" . Made completely from scratch, it is technically a peanut butter fudge but is actually a chocolate fudge with a little peanut butter in it. I also crush salted party peanuts ant put in half the batches and this year I'm going to try some rice crispies in some. It's one of those recipes that basically just gets you in the ballpark with the ingredients but the cooking time is VERY critical to smooth textured fudge and candy thermometer doesn't cut it. I have a time for a guide to start dipping the spoon in and then I watch how it runs off spoon to tell me when all the sugar is melted and then you have about a minute to get the nuts,peanut butter and reg butter stirred in and get it into the pan before it starts setting up. Very hard to master but well worth it. Took us a long time to master what Grandma made look easy. She just gave us the recipe...no lessons...one will waste a few batches before mastering without the "spoon dipping secret". Hardball dropping in glass of cold water almost gets you there but nothing is as accurate time after time as the spoon dripping method. I'll post some pics when in the pan and if you want the recipe I'll get it to ya. There's a reason I have to make so many batches. Lots of family and no one seems to master it. Showed my DIL and she quit just because her first one "alone" failed. Told her someone better get it before I die or Grandma (rest her soul) won't be happy. Making my blueberry pies with honey instead of sugar this year so one can eat healthy. We'll see how that works. They say they are just as good. RB
