How To Make The Best Peanut Butter Fudge

By Michelle Young


Home made sweets taste the best. Take, for example, fudge. These small cubes of pure pleasure are so much more than simple chocolate. You can mix just about any tasty ingredient in your basic mixture, designing new and even more appealing desserts. And here is one of all favorites, the best peanut butter fudge that is easy to make and perfectly delicious.

Some recipes are more complicated than others, and some are really simple. In any case, start with simple ones. You will need only a few minutes to make really lovely desserts, and the secret is definitely in high quality ingredients. Simple desserts can be equally tasty, or even more tasty than really complicated ones.

So, you have to prepare the base. This is usually done by simply combining three cups of good choco chips and one small can of sweetened condensed milk. Place these ingredients in a bowl, put the bowl in the microwave and leave it there until everything is melted. Stir and add three large spoons of some fine peanut butter.

You should previously prepare the pan, lining it with parchment paper, or maybe with some foil. Once you mix all ingredients together, pour them into the pan and spread. Leave it to cool for a while, and then put into the fridge for some time, until the mass is hard enough for you to cut it into the cubes, or any other shape you prefer. You may also sprinkle something on for decoration.

Once you have this basic mixture, it's really easy to add whatever you want to make it all more interesting. For example, you can add butter, chopped nuts, vanilla, jelly bonbons, or a small spoon of instant coffee. This way you can get totally different desserts, and it will be interesting to play with tastes. It might be a good idea to sprinkle this mixture as soon as you spread it onto your pan.

Another ingredient that works perfectly with your favorite spread is caramel. It's really easy to make your own caramel, but you should remember a few things. It should be made over low heat, and you shouldn't stir the sugar, just shake the pan a little, every once in a while. So, put two cups of sugar in your pan and wait until it's caramelized. Pour a small can of condensed milk over and stir until melted.

So, now you've prepared the caramel. Simply add chocolate in. In this case, it is easier to use melted chocolate of your choice. Add peanut butter, maybe two or three spoons, and smooth it all together. Now it's a good time to add chopped peanuts as well. You may add one cup, or more, or less, it's up to you. In any case, the most difficult part is to wait until this dessert is hard enough to start cutting and eating it.

There are numerous variations you will enjoy discovering. For example, when you use full cream instead of condensed milk, and add a little bit of butter in, you might be surprised how much smoother your dessert will be. Sometimes such recipe might require more chocolate to get hard enough, but the taste is unbelievable. Since condensed milk is usually more sweet, you might need to add some sugar in.
