"  Today I have another Friday Bake-Off that&amp;#039;s more of a No-Bake-Off. This recipe, from Alton Brown, comes together in just 4 minutes in the microwave. Add just another minute of stirring and 2 hours to chill, and this definitely encapsulates the carefree cooking of summer. This recipe has been all over the web lately, including a version with chocolate chips swirled into it. I went back to the original to get the recipe. You start by putting 2 sticks (1 cup or 8 ounces) butter in a large microwave-safe bowl, then add 1 cup peanut butter. I covered the bowl with a plate; Alton Brown suggests plastic wrap. Heat for 2 minutes on high, stir, then cover again and return to the microwave for another 2 minutes. While that&amp;#039;s going on, spray an 8-inch-square pan with nonstick spray and line it with parchment paper, leaving enough excess on the ends that you&amp;#039;ll be able to fold them over the fudge once it&amp;#039;s in the pan. When you take the mixture out of the microwave, it will be bubbling (mine was anyway). Add 1 pound confectioners&amp;#039; sugar (3 3/4 cups) and 1 teaspoon vanilla, and stir with a wooden spoon. When it&amp;#039;s all combined, spread in prepared pan. Fold excess edges over the fudge, then put in the refrigerator to cool for 2 hours. Use the excess parchment to lift the fudge from the pan, then cut into squares. Store in fridge. This would be great for a July 4th picnic, but if you&amp;#039;re looking for something more patriotic, try one of these: Only Red, White and Blue Will Do "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
