Creamy peanut butter fudge is something I crave all the time! I love the different flavors of fudge, how it melts in your mouth, and that a little piece goes a long way. When I started making fudge, I made it the old fashioned way which took some time. Now that I’ve been cooking for quite a few years, I’ve found a way to make it in the microwave! That means I can whip up a batch of fudge any time I want. Plus this recipe doesn’t require any marshmallows or fluff so you most likely have everything you need in your pantry. Once you sink your teeth into this, you’ll see and taste how creamy and scrumptious it is...enjoy!
Ingredients are as follows:
1 C butter (no substitutes)
1 C creamy peanut butter
1 tsp. vanilla
2 C powdered sugar
Directions:
Grease an 8 x 8 inch pan.
Place the butter into a bowl and melt in the microwave.
Stir in the peanut butter and vanilla.
Slowly mix in the powdered sugar; stir until combined.
Place back in the microwave and heat for 1 minute on high.
Stir again and then pour into prepared pan.
Place in the fridge until it sets up. Slice, serve and enjoy!

Do you know how big a small serving would be and how many carbs would be in it?
I sorry I don’t because you cut it into whatever size you prefer, however the pan is 9 x 9″. For the nutritional information you can decide how many pieces you’d cut it into and then enter it into an online calculator. I hope that helps 🙂
Thank you!
Is powdered sugar what we call icing sugar in UK?
Yes it is.
how long does the fudge have to set in the fridge for exactly?
It sets up in about 15-20 minutes.
Is there a way to make this recipe without butter? (Or any fudge recipe) I have developed a milk allergy and really miss fudge!
You cannot use margarine in this recipe because it won’t set up. However, I did type in “Fudge Recipe Milk Allergy” into Google and all kinds of recipes came up. I hope that helps 🙂
On batch three of eight for Christmas gifts this year.
Oh that’s wonderful Samantha…I hope they enjoy it 🙂
