Loretta Lynn's Peanut Butter Fudge! My favorite Old Fashioned fudge!

[@catherinedilworth1363]

You had me at butter and peanut butter.

[@pamspencer5377]

Whip -poor -will we have no mire here in maine whete I live. Nobody better then Loretta.She grew up in the atmosphere that most poor people had to. Her coalminers daughter is such a tribute to her dad and many othets. What a great lady she was.

[@catherineengle4196]

Momma always made peanut butter fudge. After your last video I have done made 2 batches of mommas fudge...lol. My recipe is the same basically as Loretta Lynn's but I use 2 cups of sugar and 3 tablespoons of cocoa. Also I use 1/2 cup of milk instead of water. Momma would use water too but if we had milk she would use it. My mom was a coalminers daughter too and I miss her everyday. God bless

[@sharonlalli1414]

I was just wondering about subbing the water. Going to try it. Thanks for info.

[@catherineengle4196]

@@sharonlalli1414 In my recipe I put the milk, sugar and cocoa in saucepan on med heat whisk it a little to break down the sugar. In a big mixing bowl I have my 1 teaspoon of vanilla, 1 stick of butter and 1 cup of peanut butter. My sugar mix on the stove I stir bringing to a boil and get it to softball stage. When the sugar mix is ready I pour it over the peanut butter, butter and vanilla in my mixing bowl. The heat and the hand mixing melts the butter and peanut butter into the hot sugar mixture. I will stir everything by hand until it cools down and it will start pulling away a little from the sides of my mixing bowl. It will feel a little mushy and warm but not hot when time to pour it into a buttered dish or parchment paper. Even it out in your container of choice, Let it sit and chill in the frig or outside if cold enough then cut into cubes. Enjoy...God bless

It's an easy favorite at church gatherings 😁🙏

[@Lea941]

I learned in an old cookbook that when you make fudge, always lightly grease the inside of the pan so when you boil the fudge the sugar crystals wont stick to the side and get back into your fudge that will cause the fudge to be grainy . It works every time.

[@beaglemama7928]

Thank you for sharing that😘

[@virginiahartman4533]

What if you don’t have a candy thermometer how do you know when is the soft ball atage

[@brendasimmons9045]

Drop a small amount of the fudge into a cup of very cold water and if you can form a small-ball your fudge is at the soft ball stage

[@virginiahartman4533]

@@brendasimmons9045 thank you

[@cecacademicadvisor]

Thank you for this tip. I will try this tip because my cooked fudge is always grainy. 😁👍❤️

[@aprildegele1510]

Thank you so much for sharing this recipe! I'm with you. if Loretta says it's good, I'm going to trust her. There's something that warms my soul with what I can only describe as "love" when I see these nostalgic recipes. I'm from the south and I know what "working with what you have" means. Thank you for keeping this tradition alive. Even all of these years later, it reminds me not only of how my great grandmother and grandmother had to work with little to do such huge things, it keeps alive a tradition that may be back in fashion someday, whether by necessity or choice. My heart is full. ❤

[@lindamartin4605]

This is the only fudge I’ve ever made. My mother made it for us when I was little and I’m now 70 years old. Nothing like it and oh boy that wonderful smell brings back the memories

[@VstarrAsh]

It gives me so much pleasure to watch your videos. You are two of my favourite people. Thank you for showing traditional fudge recipes which do not need fluff or syrup.❤❤❤

Looks like my momma’s fudge. She made the best fudges. I loved her divinity fudge the best. We only got a couple of pieces, each Christmas. It was a special treat. I miss those times so very much.

I got to hear her sing and she kicks off her fancy shoes and sits down on the stage and sings. It was heaven for me.

[@gregscumberlachiakitchen]

This is the same recipe that mamaw always made. She lived close to Ms Loretta in Kentucky. They were close friends. Wonderful memories you brought back. Love ya Miss Lori.

[@lindawulfkoenig4907]

I love that you are not in a hurry when you cut the fudge; that you give it the respect it is due after the magic of its alchemy by cutting it thoughtfully, and by placing every piece gently on the serving plate. I always feel like I have to hurry in the kitchen, and it makes for nothing but stress and a haphazard process. Thank you for being such a good teacher and making me see cooking and baking as an honor not only to the people it is intended for, but to the food itself, and ultimately to our Creator.

[@WhippoorwillHoller]

Thank you

[@sunflowerz54]

Miss Loretta is my favorite singer !! I am going to make this :). I can remember her cooking commercials for Crisco!!

[@shelwhitley1011]

Her and that mile high cherry pie! 😍🍒 I watched TV for two days and nights from labor and delivery in 1981...nothing to eat but ice chips and that commercial must have come on a hundred times! 😋 I was starving for cherry pie when I got out!

I love to watch him eat, I like to put black walnuts in my chocolate fudge, I like the regular old fashioned fudge, no marshmallows or anything else, I'm 79 been making this since I was 13 years old, and you are one of my favorite cooks.

[@RainyJo715]

Yum, looks delicious!!!! My Grandma always made peanut butter fudge, and we had relatives helping when she passed, because we were all so beyond devastated, and coincidentally her recipes came up missing! Such a bummer, because she’s the reason that I was baking my own bread and making my own homemade noodles at the age of 18, when I first moved out. I wanted my family to eat like the food I had grown up on. I pretty much have everything mostly figured out, or close, but those recipes would have been such a treasure, especially that fudge recipe!! 🙏🏼

[@bettypierce8050]

I'm looking forward to your Christmas cookies and candies.

[@lisahall9816]

Oh I have been looking for this recipe for years my uncle used to make this ALL the time and poured it super thin, on a plate just like that... It was my favorite and he died a few years back. This brought back my memories of him making it. Thank you SOOOOO much!

[@kmcd1386]

This was my Dad's favorite candy and you couldn't make it unless he was gone to town because he would "hover' in the kitchen until it was poured into the pan. It tastes so right when made with water. Mr. Brown, could you do a video on how to trot-line or throw line for fish in cold weather? A lot of folks don't know about deep water fishing with a trot line in the winter. Looking forward to you Bible study. Thank you

I love to see Mr. Paul enjoying the fruits of your labor. That's when you know without a doubt that something is good!

[@wadessirenvideos6750]

My mother told me recently that the fudge she likes best does not have marshmallows in it. She was a country girl who, like you, Mr Brown, and Loretta Lynn, learned about being creative and resourceful with limited ingredients for cooking and baking. Lori, I like your style in the old fashioned way of cooking; it's a great reminder and encouragement to others to remember how things used to be, and how the younger generations should be reminded that there are better things to life than just playing video games, watching disgusting and disturbing videos online, and being disrespectful of their elders. Mother taught me to keep an open mind, say PLEASE and THANK YOU, and BE HONEST. My mom could talk with you and Mr Brown and would like every minute of it; so would I. Wish I could reach into my computer monitor and have one of those peanut butter fudge bars right off that plate.

[@kellyestes5482]

From the time I was about 12 I made pounds and pounds of fudge during the holidays.

I Love Loretta so much and I'm so pleased that you chose her recipe for Peanut Butter Fudge. It looks delicious and I do love peanut butter fudge but not crazy about it when it's made with that marshmallow stuff. Some people use the marshmallow cream because they can't get their fudge to set up when all they're doing wrongn is not cooking it to the soft ball stage. Thanks for another good one Miss Lori.
