Creating smooth and creamy peanut butter fudge is all about careful melting, mixing, and setting. Here’s how I do it step by step.

2
Once the butter and sugar mixture is smooth and hot, I remove the pan from the heat and immediately stir in the peanut butter and vanilla extract. I mix until the peanut butter melts completely into the sugar mixture, creating a creamy, luscious base for the fudge.
Storage & Make-Ahead Tips
For longer storage, I wrap the fudge squares individually in parchment paper and place them in a freezer-safe container. They freeze beautifully for up to 2 months. When I want a treat, I just let them thaw at room temperature for a few minutes before enjoying.
