Instructions
 

For the Peanut Butter Fudge Layer:

  • Line a 9x9" square pan with parchment paper. Secure with binder clips to help keep the paper in place.
  • In a microwave safe bowl, melt together the butter and peanut butter. Microwave for 60 seconds. Stir, then microwave for another 30 seconds until melted, stirring well.
  • Add in the vanilla and stir to combine. Gradually add in the powdered sugar, one cup at a time. Mixture will become very thick. Press into the bottom of the lined pan. Set aside.

For the Chocolate Fudge Layer:

  • In a microwave safe bowl, add the chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk and butter. Microwave for 60 seconds. Stop and stir well. Microwave for another 30 seconds and stir until smooth and melted.
  • Pour over the peanut butter layer. Spread evenly with a spatula, making sure all sides are evenly covered. Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2 hours (you can freeze for 1 hour) to let the fudge set before cutting into squares.

Notes

Recipe yields about 48, 1" squares.
Freezing: This fudge freezes well. Great for making in advance and bringing out for holiday parties or gifting in decorative containers to friends and neighbors.
