Peanut Butter Fudge Ingredients

• 2 c. granulated sugar
• ½ c. milk
• 1 tsp. vanilla extract
• ¾ c. creamy peanut butter

How to Make Peanut Butter Fudge

1. Line an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper and set it aside. This makes cleanup easy and helps the fudge pop right out.
2. In a medium saucepan, whisk together the sugar and milk. Heat over medium until it starts to boil, then keep it boiling for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly so it doesn’t scorch.
3. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla and peanut butter. Mix until it’s smooth and creamy.
4. Pour the mixture into your prepared pan and pop it in the fridge for about an hour to set.
5. Once it’s firm, lift it out with the parchment, slice into squares, and enjoy!

Pro Tips For Making This Recipe

1. Use creamy peanut butter for that silky texture but chunky works too if you like a little crunch!
2. Don’t skip the parchment paper, it makes slicing and serving a breeze.
3. Want a twist? Add a sprinkle of sea salt on top before chilling for a sweet-salty combo.
4. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
