This Easy Peanut Butter Fudge Recipe is made in the microwave! Make the white chocolate version or the double chocolate version! Both are gluten free and made without sweetened condensed milk.
I don’t know about you, but I could reeeeeeally go for a slice of easy peanut butter fudge right now.
The holidays are b.u.s.y.
But you guys all know that.
That’s why we need REALLY easy and delicious treats to reward ourselves when we get a little stressed. 😉
Enter: easy peanut butter fudge.
I’ve had a few requests from you guys for a peanut butter fudge recipe. You ask. I deliver. And JUST in time.
I couldn’t decide between a chocolate chocolate peanut butter fudge or a white chocolate peanut butter fudge, so today, I did both. 🙂
What I like most about this peanut butter fudge recipe is that you literally just throw everything into a microwave and it magically turns into fudge.
Let’s start with the double chocolate peanut butter fudge.
Double Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge
Into a bowl place: powdered sugar, cocoa powder, butter, chocolate milk, and peanut butter.
Microwave everything above for 90 seconds.
Whisk in vanilla then pour into an 8×8 baking pan.
Place in the freezer until firm. Serve and enjoy!
The result is an ultra chocolatey, perfectly peanut butter-y, incredibly smooth, rich, and creamy peanut butter fudge. 🙂
White Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge
Into a bowl place: powdered sugar, white chocolate chips, butter, chocolate milk, and peanut butter.
Microwave everything above for 90 seconds.
Whisk in vanilla then pour into an 8×8 baking pan.
Place in the freezer until firm. Serve and enjoy!
The result is an extremely creamy, perfectly peanut butter-y, amazingly sweet, thick, and rich peanut butter fudge. 🙂
Whichever version you choose (they’re both equally delicious), I just KNOW you’re gonna love it. It’s honestly the creamiest fudge I’ve ever had.
Now go.
Go and eat some easy peanut butter fudge! 🙂
Happy Holidays!
