Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups white chocolate chips
  • ½ cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Prepare your pan and ingredients: Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil, allowing some overhang for easy removal. Measure out all ingredients to ensure a smooth cooking process.
  2. Melt white chocolate and butter: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the white chocolate chips and butter. Heat in 20-second bursts, stirring between each until smooth and fully melted. Be careful to avoid overheating to prevent the chocolate from seizing.
  3. Add peanut butter and condensed milk: Stir in the creamy peanut butter and sweetened condensed milk to the melted chocolate mixture. Mix well until the mixture is fully combined and smooth.
  4. Flavor and season: Blend in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. This intensifies flavor and balances the sweetness beautifully.
  5. Pour and chill: Pour the fudge mixture into your prepared pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until fully set.
  6. Slice and enjoy: Once set, lift the fudge out of the pan using the overhanging parchment or foil. Slice into squares and serve or package as gifts.

Notes

  • Use high-quality white chocolate for richer, creamier fudge.
  • Melt ingredients gently using low and slow heating to prevent burning or seizing.
  • Mix thoroughly for a silky smooth fudge without lumps or streaks.
  • Chill the fudge fully in the refrigerator for clean slicing and best texture.
  • Let fudge sit at room temperature a few minutes before cutting to avoid crumbling.
  • Natural peanut butter can be used but must be well stirred for smoothness.
  • For dairy-free version, substitute sweetened condensed coconut milk and dairy-free butter.
  • Mix in chopped nuts, mini chocolate chips, or swirl melted dark chocolate for customization.
