Oh yes! Peanut butter fudge is rich, creamy, and super easy to make—perfect for a sweet treat. Here’s a simple no-bake version:
Ingredients (makes about 16 squares)
- 1 cup (250g) creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups (240g) powdered sugar, sifted
- Optional: pinch of salt, chocolate chips, or chopped peanuts for topping
Instructions
- Prepare your pan
- Line an 8×8-inch (20×20 cm) baking pan with parchment paper.
- Melt butter and peanut butter
- In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat.
- Add peanut butter and stir until smooth and combined.
- Add vanilla and sugar
- Remove from heat. Stir in vanilla extract.
- Gradually add powdered sugar, stirring until fully incorporated and smooth.
- Pour into pan
- Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared pan.
- Optional: sprinkle chocolate chips or chopped peanuts on top and press lightly.
- Chill
- Refrigerate for at least 1–2 hours until firm.
- Cut and serve
- Lift fudge from the pan using parchment paper. Cut into squares and enjoy!
💡 Tips:
- For extra creamy fudge, you can microwave the peanut butter and butter together instead of stovetop.
- For a chocolate swirl, melt 1/2 cup chocolate chips and drizzle on top before chilling.
If you want, I can also give a super fudgy, rich version that’s almost like candy-store peanut butter fudge—it’s a bit more decadent but totally worth it.
