This peanut butter fantasy fudge is a family favorite that's extra fancy and so easy! It uses whipped and light Kraft marshmallow creme as its secret ingredient, along with peanut butter. Our family has been making this recipe around Christmas for as long as I can remember. It's a great gift for friends and acquaintances. We all absolutely love it and hope you will, too.

-
Combine 1 1/2 cups sugar, 6 tablespoons margarine, and 1/3 cup evaporated milk in a heavy 1 1/2-quart saucepan; bring to full rolling boil, stirring constantly. Continue boiling over medium heat for 4 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent scorching.

Remove from heat; stir in chocolate pieces until melted. Add 1/2 of the marshmallow creme and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla; beat until well blended. Pour into a greased 9x13-inch baking pan.
-
Repeat steps 1 and 2 with remaining ingredients, substituting peanut butter for chocolate pieces. Spread evenly over chocolate layer.
-
Let fudge cool at room temperature until set; cut into squares.
