Ingredients
  

  • 10 oz peanut butter chips white chocolate will work as well
  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk (14 oz.)
  • cup creamy peanut butter
  • tsp vanilla extract
  • cup marshmallow creme
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows optional

Equipment

  • Frying pan
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Wooden Spoon

Method
 

  1. In a microwave safe bowl, combine the peanut butter chips and sweetened condensed milk. Microwave on high for 20 second increments stirring in between until chips are completely melted and mixture is smooth and creamy. This will take anywhere from 1 to 1½ minutes.
  2. Stir in the creamy peanut butter and vanilla extract and then gently add the marshmallow creme, stirring only until incorporated. If adding mini marshmallows, fold them in at this time.
  3. Transfer to a parchment lined (or well greased) 8×8 inch pan. Spread into one even layer. Chill until set.
  4. Cut into 1 to 1½ inch pieces and store in an airtight container. If kept in the refrigerator, this fudge can keep for about 2 weeks.

Notes

  • Do not over stir: Over stirring your fudge will cause the texture to be more grainy.
  • Do not overheat: Overheating the fudge will cause it to be dry and clumpy.
  • Triple check: Ensure you have sweetened condensed milk and not evaporated milk, as they are not interchangeable.
  • Cutting tips: You can use dental floss to cut your fudge for easy, smooth slices.
  • Thin knife: A super thin, sharp knife works well. Run it under hot water and then dry it before each few cuts.
