Ingredients for 2-Ingredient Peanut Butter Fudge

  1. Creamy Peanut Butter: The heart and soul of this fudge, creamy peanut butter brings a rich and nutty flavor with a velvety smooth texture, making each bite a heavenly experience.

  2. Vanilla Frosting: Partnering with peanut butter, vanilla frosting adds a touch of sweetness and a luscious creaminess, transforming this two-ingredient wonder into a decadent treat that’s as easy to make as it is delightful to savor.

How to Make 2-Ingredient Peanut Butter Fudge

  1. Line a 9″ x 9″ pan with foil and set it aside.
  2. Add peanut butter and vanilla frosting to a medium-sized microwave-safe bowl. Do not stir. Microwave for 1 minute, then stir until combined and completely smooth. Pour into prepared pan and spread evenly. Place in refrigerator until firm. Remove the fudge from the pan using the foil, and then cut the fudge into squares.
  3. This fudge is very creamy, with a texture that is a bit softer than traditional fudge. It’s oh so good! The fudge freezes well, too. Just place it in an airtight container with layers of fudge separated by wax paper.

How to Store Leftover Fudge

Store your 2-Ingredient Peanut Butter Fudge with care to ensure its freshness and flavor are preserved. Here’s the best way to store it:

  1. Refrigeration: To maintain the fudge’s texture and prevent it from becoming overly soft, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. The cool temperature will keep the fudge firm and delicious.

  2. Airtight Container: Choose a container with a tight-sealing lid to minimize exposure to air and moisture, helping to prevent the fudge from drying out or developing an undesired texture.
  3. Parchment Paper Layers: Place parchment paper between layers of fudge in the container to prevent them from sticking together. This also makes it easier to remove individual pieces without damaging their appearance.
  4. Avoid Odor Absorption: Keep the fudge away from strongly scented foods in the refrigerator to prevent it from absorbing unwanted odors. This will help maintain its pure and delightful peanut butter flavor.
  5. Labeling and Date: If you plan to store the fudge for an extended period, consider labeling the container with the date of preparation. This way, you can keep track of its freshness and enjoy it at its best.
  6. Room Temperature for Short Periods: While refrigeration is ideal for longer storage, you can leave the fudge at room temperature for short periods when serving. However, be cautious not to expose it to heat for extended durations to avoid melting.
