The biggest trick to getting great peanut butter fudge is quickly working when adding the confectioners sugar into the melted peanut butter and butter mixture. Don’t add it all at once but in a few intervals and mix quickly, pour quickly, and roll out fudge quickly. So, I recommend having everything out and organized before starting the fudge so you can smoothly move between each step.

Peanut Butter Fudge Shapes

8 ounces butter
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pound confectioners sugar

Gather ingredients, large microwavable safe bowl, spatula, parchment paper, cookie sheet or pan or some sort, measuring cups
In a microwavable safe bowl, melt the 8 ounces of butter with the 1 cup butter in 30 second intervals until completely melted.
Add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and stir.
Slowly add in the pound of confectioners sugar until completely mixed. I use a spatula for this step.
Quickly pour onto the parchment paper lined pan or cookie sheet.
Take another piece of parchment paper to cover the top for the rolling pin.
Use the rolling pin to give a quick roll and then immediately remove parchment paper and cut the shapes for the fudge. Do not roll too much because it can cause cracking but just enough for your cookie cutter to get through.
Set shapes on parchment paper and let cool in fridge for one hour.
