A very easy dessert to make
Fudge is one of the easiest treats to make. It tastes amazing and is always a hit. This year I brought this Peanut Butter and Chocolate Fudge to our Family Christmas party and it was a hit. No need telling everyone I made it all with little work and absolutely no baking, heck I didn't use the stove at all.
Melting your ingredients!
You could use the stovetop and melt the two layers separately in a pot but I took the easy way out and just popped it in the microwave for a few seconds. If you are making this on the stovetop the directions wouldn't change at all. All you would change is mixing and melting in a saucepan, not a microwave-safe bowl.
How to make Peanut Butter and Chocolate Fudge:
- Microwave butter, peanut butter, vanilla extract in a microwave-safe bowl to prepare the peanut butter layer until well combined and smooth.
- Add powdered sugar and mix until well combined.
- Place in a prepared casserole dish. Place in the fridge while you prepare your chocolate fudge.
- Combine chocolate chips, butter, and sweetened condensed milk for the chocolate layer in a microwave-safe bowl.
- Microwave for 30 seconds at a time, stirring and place into back into the microwave until fully melted. Remove dish from the fridge and pour it on the chocolate layer.
- Allow to chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours and then cut into bite-size pieces and serve.

Nutrition
I used an 11 x 9 dish and it was perfect.
I’d like to know too!
What size dish do you use to pour combined fudge into? Seems like it would be too much fudge for an 8”x 8” or 9”x 9” casserole dish.
