PenniF: Your SS is a lucky person...All the goodies are super great! My eyes went directly to that lovely teacup and saucer. Seeing this is my first SS swap (first swap ever), I am learning a lot by reading this thread. I will do better next year. Oh..no package yet but we did get snow 2 days ago and WINDY, last night got down to 16 degrees. Broke some very old records. Sunshine today!

PenniF was thinking cookies but was wanting chocolate but really fudge and this is realllllllly easy!
Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge

Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge

Ingredients

1/4 cup butter or margarine
1/3 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup peanut butter
Instructions

Melt butter in a medium saucepan. Remove from heat and add milk and vanilla.
Sift sugar, cocoa and salt together.
Gradually add sugar mixture to milk mixture stirring until blended.
Stir in peanut butter. I try to leave a few streaks of peanut butter showing but you can stir it completely in if you want.
Press mixture into buttered 8-inch square pan. I line my pan with parchment for easy removal.
Cover and chill. Cut into squares. Keep refrigerated.

Notes

This is a soft fudge, I slightly freeze my fudge for easier cutting then store in the fridge.


Enjoy everyone!

Another GREAT recipe for the file.....you cannot possibly go wrong when chocolate and peanut butter are involved together. Thank you Cattut !!

Thanks for all the kind words about the SS gift photo.....you are all very sweet. I take the compliments very much to heart, as i know what a creative bunch you all are. Back to the DSM for me....trying to get my next project finished tonight.

PenniF Your lady is one lucky gal. There is good and bad. The bad is I have not received anything yet but there is still time. The good thing is I don't have to keep myself in check yet. I also thought that the things I sent were fine until I saw the things you all sent. Hope my partner likes what I did send her. Already thinking about what to send next year. I have to climb out of the hole as I believe that I am getting my DH's cold (he loves to share) and I don't want to make anyone else sick. But save my seat I will be back. Prayers to all who are having health problems. Take care all and stay healthy. BrendaK

Sorry you aren't feeling up to snuff, BrendaK. When I feel a cold coming on I start eating lots of dark green leafy veggies (turnip greens cooked in chicken broth). They 'beef up' your B vitamins and boost your immunities and chase the cold away! And no sugar! Sugar weakens the body's immune system. Feel better soon!
