Perfect for a dessert tray

What kind of peanut butter should you use?
For this recipe you want to use a nice creamy peanut butter that’s sweetened and won’t separate.
So use something like Jif or Skippy. Save the natural peanut butter for the morning toast, and not for this fudge.
What size dish should I use?
I use an 8×8-inch square baking dish, like you’d make brownies in, and it makes nice thin pieces of fudge that aren’t too big.
If you’d like thicker pieces of fudge, pour the mixture into a loaf pan.

How perfect I saw this today…. my neighbors had some littles over and I wanted to take a treat over to them — I made this fudge in the morning and it was ready in just a short time to bring in the afternoon. There was not even one piece left over— super simple, and tasted amazing! Keeping this one around for a LONG time for sure THANK you!

Followed directions exactly. Very good taste, but never set. was it too much peanut butter? Stayed very soft no matter how long t was refrigerated. where did I go wrong?

If you used something like Jif or Skippy, a nice creamy peanut butter that’s sweetened and won’t separate, so no natural peanut butter ~ 1 cup minus 2 tablespoons of it. And used 1 cup of regular semi-sweet like Toll House chocolate chips. Melted it all together, and then poured it in an 8×8-inch square baking dish. It went in the fridge for at least an hour, it should set.
I know that this past Christmas people were saying that butter contained more water and their Christmas cookies were coming out badly. Maybe the manufacturers have done something to the peanut butter or the chocolate. I’ve made this many times, and so have others. It’s an old recipe. It stays soft if left on the counter, but with the chocolate it in, it sets up.
