Serves: 16 pieces
Ingredients
- 1 cup goat's milk
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Gather all the ingredients: 1 cup of goat's milk, 1 cup of peanut butter, 1 cup of powdered sugar, 1/4 cup of butter, and 1 tsp of vanilla extract. Make sure you have a clean working area and all necessary kitchen tools ready.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the butter and goat's milk. Place the saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the butter is completely melted and the mixture is heated through. Do not bring it to a boil.
- Once the butter has melted, remove the saucepan from the heat. Add the peanut butter to the mixture and stir until it is fully incorporated and smooth.
- Gradually add the powdered sugar to the peanut butter mixture, stirring continuously to avoid lumps. Mix until the sugar is fully dissolved and the fudge mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Stir in the vanilla extract, mixing well to ensure it is evenly distributed throughout the fudge mixture.
- Prepare an 8x8-inch square baking dish by lining it with parchment paper or greasing it lightly with butter. This will help in removing the fudge easily once it has set.
- Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish, using a spatula to spread it evenly across the dish. Smooth the top to create a flat surface.
- Allow the fudge to cool at room temperature for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to the refrigerator. Chill for at least 1 hour, or until the fudge is firm and set.
- Once set, remove the fudge from the baking dish using the edges of the parchment paper. Cut it into 16 equal pieces using a sharp knife.
- Serve the goat's milk peanut butter fudge immediately or store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
Tips
- Use room temperature ingredients to ensure smooth mixing and consistent texture.
- Stir continuously when adding powdered sugar to prevent lumps from forming.
- Be careful not to overheat the milk and butter mixture - gentle heating is key to maintaining the perfect fudge consistency.
- For extra smoothness, sift the powdered sugar before adding it to the mixture.
- Line your baking dish with parchment paper for easy removal and clean cutting.
- Chill the fudge completely before cutting to get clean, precise squares.
- For variations, try adding a sprinkle of sea salt on top or mix in some chopped nuts for extra crunch.
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain freshness and texture.
- Let the fudge sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving for the best flavor and texture.
- Use a sharp, warm knife for clean cuts when portioning your fudge.
