How To Make One Really Delicious Peanut Butter Fudge

By Michelle Young


When you make your sweets at home, you can use your favorite ingredients, and you always know what to expect. Some people love some things, while others prefer something else, but everybody loves a good fudge. Peanut butter fudge tastes great in all combinations, especially when combined with really good chocolate, and that's why you simply cannot make a mistake with this lovely dessert.

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.

The first thing to do is to make the base. This is really easy, simply combine one can condensed milk, sweetened or not, and three cups chocolate chips, dark, milk or white, it's up to you. Place these ingredients in the bowl and melt them together in the microwave. Stir, add your selected type of peanut butter, two or three spoons, and stir until smooth.

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.

Now, when you have your caramel, add approximately two cups melted chocolate in. Use dark or white choco chips if you want, or simply cut and melt your favorite milk chocolate. After that, add two large spoons of your best peanut spread in and stir until smooth. Add chopped or crushed peanuts if you want, place into prepared pan, cool in the fridge to become hard enough to cut, and enjoy.

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.
