FAQ
You have to control two temperatures to make successful fudge: the cooking temperature AND the temperature at which the mixture cools before stirring to make it crystallize. Confectionery experiments have shown that the ideal cooking temperature for fudge is around 114 to 115 °C (237 to 239 °F).
Peanut Butter Fudge Ingredients. Butter: This peanut butter fudge starts with a stick of butter. Sugars: You'll need brown sugar and confectioners' sugar. Milk: Milk adds moisture and thins the mixture slightly. Vanilla: Vanilla extract enhances the overall flavor of the fudge.
Store uneaten fudge in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week, or in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
The main reason is that your Fudge has not reached the optimum temperature. If your mixture only reaches 110 or 112 degrees Celsius it will always be soft. That's why we recommend investing in a sugar thermometer. Another reason your Fudge is not setting is that the ratio of liquid to sugar is too high.
Once a seed crystal forms, it grows bigger and bigger as the fudge cools. A lot of big crystals in fudge makes it grainy. By letting the fudge cool without stirring, you avoid creating seed crystals.
