Ingredients
- 18 oz creamy peanut butter (e.g., Jif)
- 16 oz vanilla frosting (e.g., Betty Crocker)
- Prepare your pan: Line an 8×8-inch square pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
- Combine ingredients: In a mixing bowl, add 18 oz of creamy peanut butter and 16 oz of vanilla frosting.
- Mix until smooth: Stir the peanut butter and frosting together thoroughly until the mixture is completely combined and smooth without any lumps.
- Transfer to pan: Pour the peanut butter mixture into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
- Chill: Place the pan in the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours or until the fudge is firm and set.
- Slice and serve: Once set, remove the fudge from the pan using the parchment paper, cut it into squares, and enjoy your quick peanut butter fudge treat.
Notes
- Use creamy peanut butter for the smoothest texture; natural peanut butter may result in a grainier fudge.
- You can substitute the vanilla frosting with cream cheese frosting for a tangier flavor.
- Store the fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- For a firmer fudge, chill it longer or briefly freeze before slicing.
- Add chopped nuts or chocolate chips to the mixture for extra texture and flavor.
