Myrtle's Peanutbutter Fudge
First, make sure you have the following ingredients:Prepare a 9-10" by 13-15" cake pan by rinsing out the dust, dead crickets, and mouse droppings with scalding hot water, drying it, and spraying it with Pam. Note- My pans may need this full treatment. My mother's don't.
4 cups of sugar 1 can of evaporated milk (12 fl. oz.) 1 1/2 cups of creamy-style peanut butter (about 20 oz., but an 18 oz. jar will do) 1 bag of miniature marshmallows (16 oz.) Pam no-stick cooking spray Place the evaporated milk and the sugar into a 4 quart cooking pot. Heat the mixture on medium heat until it reaches the "soft ball" stage, stirring constantly with a spatula to prevent burning and sticking. Cooks know what this "soft ball" thing means. Nobody else does. The idea is to drop a small bit of the mixture into a glass of [cold] water and observe the results. If it's runny, you need to cook it some more. If it forms a soft ball, it's done. If the glass blows up, you've overdone it.
"How," you may be asking yourself, "am I supposed to stir constantly and do this soft ball check business? After all, I've only got two hands!" You take the pot off the burner while you do your checking. Veterans say they can tell when the soft ball stage requirement has been met, without even checking. Here's a hint: when you think it's cooked enough, it probably isn't. The bottom line is- if you over-cook it, it comes out too hard. If you under-cook it, it comes out too soft, and you'll have to eat the "fudge" with a spoon. I've found an easier way- just continue cooking it for 8 minutes after it has started boiling.
When you are satisfied that the mixture is cooked enough, take it off the burner and add the marshmallows and peanut butter. Using a large sturdy spoon, stir the ingredients until the marshmallows and peanut butter are melted and thoroughly mixed in. Pour the mixture into the 9-10" by 13-15" cake pan. When and if it hardens, cut it into squares. Mmmm, good!
