Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge

    This is the fudge me and my mother make every year for Thanksgiving and Christmas.  It is absolutely amazing and creamy and rich.  Its always a hit for anywhere you go.  Try to make it on a day when there is very little rain/snow. We always use Jif traditional creamy peanut butter because it just makes it really creamy and sweet.  You can use your favorite, whatever that may be, but I suggest you use one that isn't a natural or organic because they tend to separate and I'm not sure it would turn out the same.
Ingredients:
3 cups sugar
¾ cup butter or margarine
2/3 cup evaporated milk
6 oz. pkg. chocolate chips.
2 cups Marshmallow fluff
1 tsp. vanilla
½ cup peanut butter
 Directions:
                Combine 1 ½ cup sugar, 6 Tbsp. butter, and 1/3 cup evap. Milk in a heavy 1 ½ quart saucepan.  Bring to a full boil, stirring constantly.  Continue boiling 4 minutes over medium heat, stirring constantly to prevent scorching.   Remove from heat. Stir in chocolate pieces until melted.  Add 1 cup marshmallow and ½ tsp. vanilla.  Beat until well blended.  Pour into greased 13x9 pan. Repeat with remaining ingredients, substituting peanut butter for the chocolate.  Spread over chocolate layer. Cool at room temp. Cut into squares. Makes 3 lbs. 
I hope you all enjoy this recipe and Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!  More holiday recipes to come I hope :)
