Yummy Fudge Recipes for Peanut Butter Fudge with Walnuts and Buttermilk Fudge with Pecans

Homemade fudge is one of the great indulgences of life.  And don"t be fooled into thinking you can"t make good fudge.  Copper kettles, etc are not necessary for a good batch of fudge.  You can do it, right in your own kitchen, with the tools you have on hand.  Here are a couple of good fudge recipes to show you just how easy it can be.  Peanut Butter Fudge with Walnuts or pecans, if you prefer, or the old fashion Buttermilk Fudge  is easy to make and is a real treat.  Note:  One of the keys to make good, creamy fudge is to beat the mixture as the directions state.  You need to beat until your arm is so tired but the fudge is stiff and creamy. PEANUT BUTTER FUDGE WITH WALNUTS 2 cups sugar 1/2 cup milk 4 tbsp peanut butter 1 tsp butter 2 tbsp dark corn syrup 1 tsp vanilla 1/2 cup finely chopped walnuts Mix the sugar, milk, peanut butter, butter, and corn syrup together in a large saucepan. Stir over low heat until mixture slowly comes to a boil. Boil until mixture forms a soft ball in cold water. Remove from the heat and beat until thick and creamy. Add vanilla and nuts. Beat until the fudge looks dull. Pour into a well buttered pan. Cut into squares when cooled. Old Fashion Buttermilk Fudge 3 cups sugar 1 1/2 cups fresh buttermilk 1 tsp baking soda 1/2 cup butter 1/2 cup chopped pecans Mix soda into the buttermilk and let stand for 3 minutes. Cook all ingredients together to the soft ball stage. Cool slightly, add nuts and beat until creamy. Spread into a dish or pan that has been sprayed with nonstick spray. Allow to cool and cut into squares. Enjoy!

Pressure Cookers, Friend Or Foe
Pressure cookers have this terrible reputation of being very dangerous. In the past they have been known to burst and trigger a fire in the kitchen or leave burns all over the cook. It is not like that with newer models and they are very safe to use. Food is mixed with a little water inside the pan. The lid is different in that it clamps and locks shut once this is done the cooker is placed on a burner of a stove. The heat gets hotter and starts to create steam which, in turn, creates a pressure inside the cooker because it cannot get out. Pressure will keep rising until it can"t anymore for the area inside the pot and then a little valve on the cooker or a weight that is attached to the cooker will start to release this excess steam preventing an explosion. Food is cooked at a much higher temperature without any danger of being burned. It also cooks 70% quicker than if you used the oven or a regular set of pots and pans.
