1 rule for preventing graininess in the cooked version. Stirring can cause sugar crystals to form.
· Use a Candy Thermometer: For the classic recipe, this is non-negotiable for the right texture.
· The Right Peanut Butter: For the creamiest, most stable fudge, use a standard commercial brand like Jif or Skippy. The oils in natural peanut butter can separate and make the fudge greasy.
· Weather Matters: Humid or rainy days can prevent fudge from setting properly. It’s best to make fudge on a cool, dry day.
· Storage: Store fudge in an
airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks. It can also be frozen for up to 3 months.
