This family recipe is from Delma Williams of Bernie, who has been cooking since she was barely tall enough reach the stovetop.  When her son, Glen, who has been eating this fudge since he was a toddler, brings a pan of it to work with him at the university he is instantly mobbed by his co-workers.  One bite and you’ll understand why.

Ingredients: 

4 cups sugar
1 can evaporated milk
1 stick butter
1 jar marshmallow crème
2 cups peanut butter (smooth or chunky)

Directions: 

Bring sugar, milk, and butter to boil.  Cook to medium soft ball stage (236 degrees), stirring frequently.  Remove from heat and immediately add marshmallow crème and peanut butter.  Stir until candy loses its gloss and is thoroughly blended.  Pour into a large pan, let cool, and mark into squares.  Makes about four pounds.
