The ones I tend to run across always seem to be the soft, creamy version, which is not what I'm into. If it's going to feel like peanut butter in my mouth, then what's the point? No, I want something that feels dense and firm in my fingers but will almost instantly liquefy in when it hits my tongue. Recipe by Chef John Updated on November 11, 2021 Save Saved!

Pour over powdered sugar in the bowl. Mix together using a spatula until smooth. Spread mixture into an 8x8-inch baking pan lined with plastic wrap.

Chef John's Grandma's Creamy Peanut Butter Fudge. Elder Mitchell Chef's Notes: This technique will work with other nut butters, smooth or chunky, like almond or cashew. Use 1/4 teaspoon fine salt instead of kosher if desired.
