Ingredients

24 servings
  • 1 ¼ cups unsalted butter
  • 1 ¼ cups creamy peanut butter
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 4 cups powdered sugar

Steps

  1. Butter an 8 x 8-inch baking dish or cover with parchment paper, making sure to leave plenty of parchment hanging over the sides.

  2. In a large pot over medium heat, melt 1 ¼ cups unsalted butter and 1 ¼ cups creamy peanut butter, stirring occasionally. Bring to a boil and remove from heat.

  3. Stir in ⅛ teaspoon salt and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract until smooth. Add 4 cups powdered sugar and mix until well combined and smooth with no lumps remaining.

  4. Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish and use the back of a spoon to smooth it into an even layer. Place plastic wrap over the dish and gently press down on the top of the fudge to cover. Refrigerate for 1 hour before slicing.
