This two-layer Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge is smooth, creamy, easy to make and totally gorgeous!
How dreamy are these little morsels of fudge?! These two-layered beauties are SO simple with just a few ingredients and no candy thermometer needed.
Oh and did I mention that these are made in the microwave?! That’s right!! When I said easy, I wasn’t kidding! 🙂
Ingredients
- Sweetened Condensed Milk – Be sure you don’t accidently grab the evaporated milk as that will not work!
- Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips – I like semi-sweet but you could also use milk chocolate chips.
- Creamy Peanut Butter – Be sure to use regular peanut butter and not the super-runny “natural” peanut butter as it won’t set up quite right
- White Chocolate Bar – Ghirardelli makes a great white chocolate bar that I’d recommend! If you don’t have a white chocolate bar, almond bark will work.
- Peanut Butter Cups – Use chopped up peanut butter cups, peanut butter M&M’s or Reeses Pieces!! Any of those will work great!!
How to Store Fudge
You can keep this fudge out on the counter at room-temperature, but keep it tightly covered. You can also freeze the fudge. Place the fudge in a resealable freezer bag, remove as much air as possible, and freeze for up to three months.

I am not a huge fudge fan but decided to make this recipe of fudge that Kelsey posted because every recipe I’ve tried of hers has been so good. This is by far the best fudge ever! So easy to make. I am now a fudge fan thanks to Kelsey. My family loves it too.
This made my day!!! I’m SO happy to hear you and your family loved this recipe! 🙂 I hope you had a wonderful Christmas! -Kelsey
I noticed when I checked out the double or triple the recipe that the amount of condensed milk didn’t change is this correct ?
Hi Dianna – thanks for checking. I just fixed it so it should work now. Should be 1 can per batch (so if you triple it, you’ll need three cans). Enjoy!! ~Kelsey
This recipe is incredible. I made this for my family over Christmas and they all wanted the recipe! Thank you for sharing.
Hi Renae! Thanks so much for the excellent rating & review. Happy to hear this one is a hit with your family! 🙂 ~Kelsey
Its says here for the double recipe:
Ingredients:
2 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
Instructions:
Set out two microwave-safe bowls and evenly divide the sweetened condensed milk between the two bowls (about 2/3 cup each)
Since it’s calling for 2 cans of condensed milk, would it be 1 can each per chocolate instead of 2/3?
Yes, that’s correct! Use one can for the bottom and one for the top. Enjoy! ~Kelsey
Would white chocolate chips work for the peanut butter layer?
After setting up overnight in the fridge, these were still a gooey mess. Delicious but a mess. I used the almond bark and condensed milk, so that wasn’t the problem. I won’t be using this recipe again.
Made this for the family at Christmas and it was a hit. Everyone loved it. Very easy & quick to make. It will now be on our yearly list of Christmas goodies!!
