DIRECTIONS
Lightly grease a 9x13 inch dish.
In a 2-quart saucepan over medium heat, combine butter, sugar and milk. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Heat to between 234 and 240 degrees F (112 to 116 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a soft ball that flattens when removed from the water and placed on a flat surface. Remove from heat and stir in peanut butter, chocolate chips and butterscotch chips until melted. Stir in vanilla. Fold in marshmallow creme. Pour into prepared pan. Chill in refrigerator until firm.

This fudge was really tasty and easy to make. The only thing I changed was I lined the pan with foil instead of greasing it and it came out great.

this recipe did combine the best of all worlds. i thought it could have used a lot more chocolate, but my husband LOVED it. BEWARE: this is very, very sweet, again my husband liked it that way. also, i don't have a candy thermometer so i have no idea what temperature i boiled it to and it still came out perfect.

The texture of this recipe was amazing, but the butterscotch to chocolate to peanut butter ratio was really in need of improvment. First of all, I could barely taste the chocolate or peanut because of all the butterscotch! The butterscotch chips were so rich that next time I think I'll cut them down to a half cup. Also, I would suggest doubling the peanut butter. I couldn't taste the chocolate either so I added a cup of cocoa, which worked well. I'm not even sure that the chocolate chips are necessary. I probably would've given this recipe 3 stars because of this, but, as I said, the texture was so good.

Everyone LOVED this! First time fudge making, It was great! Sent it to my husbands company holiday party. The only problem ( I think with all fudge) is that it was hard to get out. My kids even overbuttered the dish. I am going to make it again and use parchment paper. Thanks for the great recipe!

Very good. I did make changes due to my limited ingredients on hand. I only ever have fat free milk and have found that this can be a problem in fudge making. So, I used up some left over heavy cream and half and half that I had. Also, had not semi-sweet or butterscotch chips, only milk chocolate. So, I used 2 cups of milk chocolate and it turned out great, now more of a peanut butter/chocolate fudge. I have a candy thermometer, but if you don't, just use the cold water trick. Check the consistency about 3 minutes into boiling, that is normally when it hits the 'soft ball stage.' One other thing that I changed was instead of spraying the dish, I lined it with wax paper so I could easily pull the fudge out to cut, plus easier clean up!

Followed the recipe as written, except I started with a bigger pan (having had experience cooking this type of sugar, butter, milk combination before). Checked for the soft ball stage after approxiately 2-1/2 to 3 minutes at a full rolling boil...perfect. Got rave reviews from everyone. Great flavor, really nice texture. The butterscotch does slightly overwhelm the chocolate, but we were looking for something different from the usual chocolate fudge. As another member mentioned this is very sweet, but fudge is supposed to be sweet or it wouldn't be fudge. Will definitely make this one again!

Pretty tasty! The only problem I ran into was that the recommended pot size was not big enough! (I doubled the recipe) In the midst of a saucepan boil over, I switched everything to a stock pot - plenty of room for mixing in and it didn't boil over. OVerall, this was an easy recipe to follow.

YUMMY! This was my first time making fudge AND I made a few modifications to make it non-dairy (used vegan "butter" and chocolate soy milk) and I used natural peanut butter and it still turned out great! Didn't have a thermometer and I never did get the described effect when I dropped a small amount of syrup into cold water (maybe because of the non-dairy ingredients??) so I have no idea what temperature it was when I took it off the stove. I thought the balance of flavours was great, but then again, I was looking for a butterscotch fudge recipe to begin with (the choclat
