Peanut butter fudge

My friend, Lauren, and I made this delicious fudge just the other day.  We enjoyed working together to make it, and take pictures of the process!  

Ingredients:

3 1/2 cups sugar

1 cup milk

1/2 cup butter

1 (7 oz.) jar marshmallow creme

14 oz peanut butter

2/3 cup all-purpose flour

Optional

2 cups semi sweet chocolate chips

1 Tablespoon shortening

Grease a 9 x 13 inch baking dish, set aside.

In a saucepan, combine sugar, milk, and butter.  Bring to a boil, and cook 5 minutes.

Remove from the heat.  Stir in the marshmallow creme and peanut butter.  Gradually stir in the flour.  Pour into prepared dish, and let cool.

  If chocolate is desired:  

In a small saucepan melt shortening and chocolate over medium-low heat, just until smooth.  Pour on top of cooled fudge.  

Cut fudge into 1 inch squares.

Store in the refrigerator.  Serve chilled.
