Ingredients
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 cups powdered sugar
Directions
Step 1
Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal, and set it aside.
Step 2
In a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter.
Step 3
Add the peanut butter to the melted butter and stir until the mixture is smooth and fully combined, about 1-2 minutes.
Step 4
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Step 5
Gradually add the powdered sugar, one cup at a time, stirring well after each addition until the mixture forms a thick and smooth fudge batter.
Step 6
Press the fudge mixture evenly into the prepared baking pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Step 7
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the fudge is firm and set.
Step 8
Once set, lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment overhang. Cut into 16 squares or desired serving sizes.
Step 9
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
