what is a good milk chocolate fudge recipe

[Blue_Roses]

and can I substitute marshmellow cream for 2 cups of marshmellows? I trying to use milk chocolate morsels instead of semi-sweet this year. I also would like a good peanut butter fudge recipe if someone has that as well.
:D

1. Why milk chocolate?

Why not good old fashioned fudge like on the back of the Hershey's cocoa can? You can add a big glob of peanut butter at the end and it will be fantastic.

Here's my fudge recipe:

Rich Cocoa Fudge

3 cups sugar
2/3 cups Cocoa
1/8 salt
1 1/2 cups milk
1/4 cups butter or marg
1 tsp vanilla extract
Butter a plate, set aside. In heavy 4 quart saucepan combine sugar cocoa and salt: stir in milk. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture comes to full rolling boil. Boil without stirring, to 234 degrees. (soft ball stage) or until syrup when dropped into very cold water, forms a soft ball which flattens when removed from water. (bulb of candy thermometer should not rest on the bottom of saucepan). Remove form heat, add vanilla and butter. DO NOT STIR.* Cool at room temperature to 110 degrees(lukewarm). Beat with woooden spoon until fudge thickens and loses some of its gloss. quickly spread onto prepared plate or pan. Cool, cut into squares, pig out.

*Note: I stir where it says not to stir, and my fudge has a great grainy, dusty feel. I have never done it their way and see no need to change.

I put the peanut butter in during the final stirring. I put a heaping soup spoon of peanut butter in, sometimes more.

I find milk chocolate fudge to have a wimpy flavor. If if doesn't burn your throat, it isn't good fudge. If it doesn't dissolve on your tongue, it isn't good fudge. If it isn't nearly black, it isn't good fudge.

Standard peanut butter fudge without the chocolate is good, but I don't have a recipe.

3. sounds very tasty

I've been looking for a good fudge recipe that is grainy and not wimpy. Can you substitute brown sugar? Also is it possible to add additional cocoa ? Also, would it still be good without the peanutbutter glob at the end? Just wondering.
