Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Base Ingredients
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter The backbone of the fudge
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil Helps the fudge firm up in the fridge
Flavor Additions
  • 1/4 cup natural sweetener (like erythritol or stevia) Adjust to your taste preference
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Adds warmth and dessert flavor
  • a pinch salt Enhances the peanut butter flavor

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Add the peanut butter and coconut oil to a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 30 seconds, then stir well until the mixture is glossy and smooth.
  2. Add the natural sweetener, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Stir until the mixture is uniform, ensuring there are no dry pockets.
Setting
  1. Pour the mixture into a lined square baking dish. Spread it into an even layer.
  2. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until fully set.
Serving
  1. Lift the fudge out using the liner, place on a cutting board, and cut into squares. Adjust if needed for clean slicing.

Notes

Store in a covered container in the refrigerator. Let it sit for a minute if it's too firm straight from the fridge. Ideal for make-ahead sweet treat preparation.
