Ingredients
- 3 cups semi sweet chocolate chips
- 28 oz sweetened condensed milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 4 tbsp butter
- 1/2 tsp salt
Instructions
- In a large microwave-safe bowl, bring together chocolate chips, condensed milk and vanilla extract. Melt in the microwave by microwaving bowl on 50% power for 30 seconds, remove and stir, and then repeating until all chocolate chips are melted.
- In a medium microwave-safe bowl, bring together peanut butter, butter and salt. Melt in the microwave by microwaving bowl on 50% power for 30 seconds, remove and stir, and then repeating until peanut butter can be stirred easily.
- Line a 9' x 13' baking dish with parchment paper. Spread chocolate mixture to the bottom of the dish. Place dollops of peanut butter all over the top of chocolate without overlapping.
- Using a toothpick or a chopstick, spread the peanut butter by moving your chopstick or toothpick horizontally and then vertically.
- Refrigerate for 4-5 hours, or until fudge is harden.
- Lift parchment paper and transfer the large piece of fudge onto a cutting board. Remove parchment paper from the bottom of the fudge and discard.
- Using a sharp knife, slice fudge into 1.5-2-inch squares. If fudge gets stuck on the knife, wipe it with a towel or paper towel rinsed in hot water - this will help you get cleaner cuts of fudge squares. You may have to wipe your knife a couple of times.
- Serve and enjoy!
Notes
Heating on stove top: to heat chocolate or peanut butter mixture on stovetop, combine all the required ingredients into a pot, and heat them on low heat while stirring continuously. Once the mixture melts, remove from heat promptly.
