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.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup minus 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Line a dish with container with parchment paper, and set aside.
  • Place peanut butter and chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave on high for 80 seconds (remember microwave power will vary, please keep an eye on your fudge). Stir until the chocolate chips are melted into the peanut butter. If after a minute of stirring the chips are not all blended, microwave again for 20 seconds, and stir together.
  • Pour the mixture into the parchment lined container. Refrigerate for at least an hour. Cut into pieces.

Notes

Store this fudge in the fridge. It softens up quite a bit if left on the counter.
If you cut the fudge into about 1-inch pieces you’ll get about 64 from the 8×8-inch container. 2-inch by 2-inch pieces will give you nice big slices, and will yield 16 pieces. Of course, how many pieces you get will depend on how big you cut them. It’s up to you how big you cut them.

    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.
