Description

This Easy 2-Ingredient Peanut Butter Fudge recipe is a quick and simple treat that combines creamy peanut butter with smooth vanilla frosting to create a rich, sweet, and peanut buttery fudge.

Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 18 oz creamy peanut butter (e.g., Jif)
  • 16 oz vanilla frosting (e.g., Betty Crocker)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the mixture: In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine 18 oz of creamy peanut butter with 16 oz of vanilla frosting. Stir the ingredients together until the mixture is smooth and fully blended to ensure an even, creamy fudge texture.
  2. Heat the mixture: Microwave the peanut butter and frosting blend on high for about 1 to 1.5 minutes. This helps soften the mixture further, making it easier to spread and giving the fudge a silky finish. Stir well after microwaving.
  3. Pour into a pan: Line an 8×8 inch square pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy removal. Pour the fudge mixture into the pan and spread it evenly using a spatula to create a uniform thickness.
  4. Chill to set: Place the pan in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or until the fudge is firm enough to cut into squares. Chilling allows the fudge to solidify and develop its signature texture.
  5. Serve: Once set, remove the fudge from the pan by lifting the parchment or foil. Cut into bite-sized squares and serve. Store any leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to one week.

Notes

  • You can substitute peanut butter with any nut or seed butter if desired.
  • Use store-bought vanilla frosting for convenience; homemade frosting can also be used but may alter texture.
  • For a firmer fudge, chill overnight.
  • Add ins like chocolate chips or chopped nuts can be mixed in before chilling for added texture.
  • Make sure to use creamy peanut butter, not natural or chunky, for a smooth fudge.
