Tips for Perfect Peanut Butter Fudge
-
Use creamy peanut butter for smooth texture; chunky adds crunch but may make it harder to cut cleanly.
-
Stir constantly when heating sugar to prevent graininess.
-
For extra richness, you can swap half the milk with heavy cream.
Optional variation: Chocolate-Peanut Butter Swirl Fudge — melt ½ cup chocolate chips and swirl into the fudge before it sets for a marbled effect. 🍫🥜
If you want, I can also give a keto-friendly peanut butter fudge version that’s sugar-free and low-carb but just as creamy and delicious.
