Calories: 131kcal
Equipment
- 8x8-inch baking pan
- Aluminum Foil
Ingredients
- 1 pound almond bark
- 16 ounces creamy peanut butter
Instructions
- LINE AN 8X8" BAKING PAN WITH ALUMINUM FOIL, WITH 3-4" OF FOIL HANGING OFF EITHER SIDE. AND SET ASIDE.
- PLACE THE ALMOND BARK, BROKEN INTO LARGE CHUNKS, INTO A LARGE MICROWAVABLE-SAFE BOWL. MELT BARK ON HIGH FOR 60 SECONDS, THEN STIR. MELT FOR ANOTHER 60 SECONDS AND STIR.
- CONTINUE TO DO THIS AT 30 SECOND INTERVALS UNTIL BARK IS SMOOTH AND COMPLETELY MELTED (IT TOOK ME ABOUT 3 MINUTES TOTAL, BUT IT WILL DEPEND ON YOUR MICROWAVE).
- SCOOP THE ENTIRE CONTAINER OF PEANUT BUTTER INTO THE BOWL OF MELTED BARK AND STIR UNTIL PEANUT BUTTER IS COMPLETELY INCORPORATED AND MIXTURE IS SMOOTH. POUR MIXTURE INTO PREPARED PAN AND PLACE IN THE FRIDGE FOR 1-2 HOURS OR UNTIL SET.
- REMOVE FUDGE FROM FRIDGE AND USING THE ALUMINUM FOIL HANGING OVER EACH EDGE, LIFT THE FUDGE OUT OF THE PAN.
- CUT FUDGE USING A SHARP KNIFE (FOR SMOOTH CUTS, RUN YOUR KNIFE THROUGH HOT WATER BEFORE EACH CUT) INTO 1X1" PIECES.
Notes
WHAT COULD I ADD TO THIS FUDGE FOR GARNISH?
I am all about toppings and extra goodies on my sweets. So if you are looking to add a little extra something to this (already) delicious fudge, here are my recommendations:
-Reese’s: Why not add a little of the original flavored candy itself? Nobody will be sad about an extra Reese’s bite, combined with fudge.
-Almonds or Peanuts: I love a little texture to my food and crushed almonds or peanuts add just the right amount.
-Holiday sprinkles: I usually make fudge around Christmas time, so I like to give it a little garnish with some cute holiday sprinkles.
