Clearly, this fudge is a hit!
Now, you’re probably thinking, “Two ingredients? That’s it?” Peanut butter is the star of the show, but the supporting actor can vary. You can spice it up with cream cheese, jazz it with vanilla frosting, or even rock it with almond bark. So many possibilities, right? Here is the basic recipe so you can whip up this delicious dessert.
How to Make It
Ingredients:
- Broken up confectioner’s coating white bark
- 1 jar peanut butter
Instructions:
- Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with plastic wrap, ensuring it extends over the edges of the dish.
- Place the broken bark in a large glass microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on low power for about 5 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds to 1 minute until the coating is smooth and creamy. Add peanut butter to the melted coating and stir until thoroughly combined.
- Spread the fudge mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish. Refrigerate the fudge for one or two hours until it is set. Use the overhanging plastic wrap to lift the fudge out of the dish, then slice it into squares using a pizza cutter.
Tips and Tricks
This recipe is like a playground for your culinary creativity. If you’re not a fan of white chocolate, you’ve got options! Swap white almond bark with white chocolate and have a delicious win. When using white chocolate, mixing it up for a marble effect might not be the best idea.
If white chocolate isn’t your jam, go with regular chocolate almond bark, resulting in a supersized Reese’s peanut butter cup flavor. It’s all about finding your fudge nirvana, one tasty experiment at a time!
