Description

Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge is a decadent and indulgent treat that combines the creamy richness of peanut butter with the smooth sweetness of chocolate. This no-bake fudge is incredibly easy to make and requires only a handful of ingredients. Perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth, it’s the ideal dessert for any occasion—whether you’re celebrating a special event, making a homemade gift, or simply craving something sweet.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips (or milk chocolate chips for a sweeter version)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 ½ cups powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional, for extra flavor)
  • Pinch of salt (optional, to enhance the peanut butter flavor)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the pan: Line an 8×8-inch baking dish or a small square pan with parchment paper or foil, leaving a little overhang for easy removal.
  2. Melt the peanut butter and butter: In a medium saucepan, combine the peanut butter and butter over low to medium heat. Stir constantly until the mixture is smooth and fully melted. Remove from heat.
  3. Mix in powdered sugar: Stir in the powdered sugar until completely combined and smooth. If you like, add the vanilla extract at this point for extra flavor.
  4. Prepare the chocolate layer: In a separate saucepan, melt the chocolate chips over low heat, stirring frequently until smooth and fully melted.
  5. Layer the fudge: Pour the peanut butter mixture into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly. Then, pour the melted chocolate over the peanut butter layer, spreading it out evenly. Use a spatula to smooth the surface.
  6. Chill and set: Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2-3 hours or until it has completely set and is firm to the touch. You can also speed up the process by placing it in the freezer for 1 hour.
  7. Cut and serve: Once the fudge has set, lift it out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Cut into small squares and serve.

Notes

Variations: Add crushed nuts, drizzle extra chocolate on top, or create a marbled fudge with swirled chocolate and peanut butter.Vegan Option: Use dairy-free chocolate chips, peanut butter, and vegan butter for a completely vegan-friendly fudge.Storage: Store in the fridge for up to 1 week, or freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw in the fridge before serving.
