You can make this smooth, melt-in-your-mouth peanut butter fudge using only three simple ingredients. It sets up perfectly for easy slicing and is ideal for holiday candy making or quick dessert gifts.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 3 cups powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on two sides for easy removal. Lightly grease the paper.
  2. In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk and peanut butter. Microwave on high for 60 seconds.
  3. Stir the mixture until it is completely smooth. If lumps remain, microwave for another 15 seconds and stir again until smooth.
  4. Gradually add the powdered sugar to the peanut butter mixture, stirring until fully combined. The mixture will become very thick.
  5. Press the fudge mixture evenly into the prepared baking pan. Use a spatula or the back of a spoon to smooth the top.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the fudge is firm enough to cut.
  7. Lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Cut into 1-inch squares. Store leftovers in an airtight container.

Notes

  • For a stovetop method, gently heat the condensed milk and peanut butter in a saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth before adding the powdered sugar. Do not boil.
  • If you want a richer flavor, you can use natural peanut butter, but you may need to stir longer to incorporate it fully.
  • This easy homemade fudge makes a great addition to your holiday candy making plans.
