Instructions
- In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the butter until completely liquid.
- Stir in the creamy peanut butter and mix until smooth and well blended.
- Add the cocoa powder, powdered sugar, and salt, mixing until a thick batter forms.
- Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
- Transfer the mixture into a prepared 8×8-inch baking dish lined with parchment paper or foil for easy removal.
- Spread the mixture evenly and press it down firmly with a spatula to create a smooth surface.
- If using, melt the chocolate chips in a microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth, then pour over the fudge.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours until firm before cutting into squares.
Chef’s Tips
- For added crunch, consider mixing in some chopped nuts like peanuts or almonds.
- Ensure the fudge is kept refrigerated to maintain its texture and flavor.
- Experiment with different chocolates, like dark or white chocolate, for a unique twist!
