Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup creamy, unsalted peanut butter
  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons butter

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Pan: Line an 8×8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it for easy removal of fudge once set.
  2. Melt the Butter and Sweetened Condensed Milk: In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the butter and sweetened condensed milk. Stir continuously until the butter is fully melted and the mixture is smooth.
  3. Add Peanut Butter and White Chocolate Chips: Remove the pan from heat; stir in the creamy peanut butter and white chocolate chips until all ingredients are completely melted and blended into a glossy, smooth batter.
  4. Stir in Vanilla Extract: Add the vanilla extract and fold it gently into the mixture to enhance the flavor.
  5. Pour and Chill: Pour the fudge mixture evenly into your prepared pan. Spread it out with a spatula to smooth the surface, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until firm.
  6. Slice and Serve: Once chilled and set, lift the fudge from the pan using the parchment paper edges and slice into bite-sized squares. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Use room temperature ingredients for smooth blending without clumping.
  • Choose quality natural creamy peanut butter without added sugars for pure flavor.
  • Do not skip chilling to ensure perfect creamy yet firm texture.
  • Use a heatproof spatula to scrape mixture cleanly from the pan to minimize waste.
  • Cut fudge with a warm knife (run under hot water and dry) for neat, clean edges.
