Ingredients
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
- Optional: 1/2 cup chocolate chips or crushed nuts for mix-ins
Instructions
- Prepare the Pan: Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- Melt the Mixture: In a medium saucepan, combine peanut butter and sweetened condensed milk over low-medium heat. Stir constantly until the mixture is smooth and well-combined.
- Pour and Set: Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and spread it evenly. Let it cool at room temperature for 30 minutes, then refrigerate for 2 hours, or until fully set.
- Serve: Once the fudge is set, cut it into squares and serve!
Notes
- For a Chocolate Twist: Add 1/2 cup of chocolate chips to the mixture for a delicious chocolate-peanut butter fudge.
- Storage: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, or freeze for longer storage (up to 3 months). Be sure to layer the fudge with parchment paper to prevent it from sticking.
- For a Nut-Free Option: Replace the peanut butter with almond or sunflower seed butter.
