Notes

  • You can make this recipe in the microwave using the same steps with 2-minute intervals.
  • If using a 9-inch pan, the fudge will be thinner.
  • Store fudge in an airtight container for up to 1 week at room temperature, 1 month in the fridge, or 3 months in the freezer.
  • Use no-stir natural peanut butter if substituting brands to avoid oily texture.
