Ingredients

• 1 cup Creamy peanut butter
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
• 2 cups Powdered sugar (confectioners’ sugar)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Line an 8x8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper or aluminum foil, allowing some overhang for easy removal. Lightly grease the lining with non-stick spray or butter.

Step 2

In a microwave-safe mixing bowl, combine the creamy peanut butter and unsalted butter.

Step 3

Microwave the mixture on high for 1-2 minutes or until melted and smooth, stirring every 30 seconds to prevent overheating.

Step 4

Remove the bowl from the microwave and immediately stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 5

Gradually add the powdered sugar to the mixture, about 1/2 cup at a time, stirring well after each addition. The mixture will become thick and fudge-like.

Step 6

Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula or the back of a spoon.

Step 7

Refrigerate the fudge for at least 1 hour, or until firm.

Step 8

Once set, lift the fudge out of the dish using the parchment paper or foil overhang. Cut into 16 equal squares.

Step 9

Serve immediately, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
