How to Make Peanut Butter Chocolate Fudge

  1. In a large saucepan, combine 1 cup peanut butter and 1/2 cup butter over medium heat. Stir constantly until completely melted and well blended.
  2. Remove from the heat. Add 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Stir until smooth and creamy.
  3. Gradually add 3 cups powdered sugar, stirring continuously until a smooth, thick fudge forms. Be patient, it will come together!
  4. Grease an 8x8 inch baking pan with butter or cooking spray.
  5. Pour the fudge into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  6. Freeze for at least 30 minutes, or until firm enough to cut.
  7. Cut into small squares and enjoy! Store leftovers in the refrigerator.
