    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! 🙂

    Piece of Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge

    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.

    Other Candy Favorites

    Looking to fill up that Christmas candy platter? I've got you covered!

      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.
