Oh yes! Peanut Butter Fudge is rich, creamy, and melts in your mouth — perfect for a sweet treat or gifting. Here’s a simple, classic no-bake version:
Easy Peanut Butter Fudge
Yields: About 16 squares
Prep: 10 min | Chill: 2 hours
Ingredients
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- ½ cup milk
- ½ cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Prepare pan: Line an 8×8-inch pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- Cook sugar mixture: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine sugar, milk, and butter. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly.
- Boil briefly: Let mixture boil for 2–3 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
- Add peanut butter and vanilla: Remove from heat. Stir in peanut butter, vanilla, and salt until smooth and fully combined.
- Pour into pan: Spread the mixture evenly in the prepared pan.
- Chill: Refrigerate 1–2 hours or until firm.
- Cut and serve: Slice into squares and enjoy!
Tips / Variations:
- For a twist, swirl in chocolate chips or drizzle melted chocolate on top before chilling.
- Add a pinch of cinnamon or a few chopped nuts for extra flavor and texture.
- For an ultra-creamy fudge, stir in 2–3 tablespoons of marshmallow creme along with the peanut butter.
If you want, I can also give a microwave 5-minute version that’s super fast, melts perfectly, and still tastes amazing.
Do you want me to show that microwave version?
