Hey friends! Today I’m super excited to share one of the easiest and yummiest treats ever Peanut Butter Fudge! It’s sweet, soft, and melts in your mouth. The best part? You only need three ingredients and a few minutes to make it. It’s perfect for a quick snack, a fun dessert, or even a gift for someone special. Let’s get started!

Method

Mixing the Ingredients

Start by grabbing a large mixing bowl. Add your peanut butter, melted coconut oil, and honey (or maple syrup if you want to make it vegan). Use a spoon or spatula to stir everything together until the mixture looks smooth and creamy. If the peanut butter is too thick and hard to mix, you can warm the bowl in the microwave for 10 seconds at a time. Stir after each round of heating until the mixture becomes easy to blend. This helps everything mix evenly and gives your fudge a nice texture.

Preparing the Container

Take a freezer-safe container and line it with baking paper. This is an important step because it keeps the fudge from sticking to the bottom and makes it easy to lift out later. Once your container is ready, pour the fudge mixture into it. Use your spatula to spread it out evenly, pressing gently so the top is smooth and flat.

Freezing the Fudge

Now it’s time to let the fudge firm up. Carefully place the container in your freezer and leave it there for about 1 hour, or until the mixture is solid. You can check by lightly pressing the top with your finger it should feel firm, not soft or sticky.

Cutting and Serving

When the fudge is fully frozen, take the container out of the freezer. Use the edges of the baking paper to lift the fudge out of the container. Place it on a cutting board and use a sharp knife to cut it into 16 small squares. If it feels too hard to slice, let it sit at room temperature for 2–3 minutes so it softens just a little. Then it will be easier to cut and eat!

Notes

Make sure your peanut butter isn’t too dry this will make mixing hard. If it is, warm it up a little before adding the other ingredients.
Don’t skip the baking paper it helps the fudge come out of the container easily.
If using natural peanut butter, stir it well before measuring so the oil and peanuts are mixed.

Serving Suggestions

Sprinkle with a bit of sea salt before freezing for a salty-sweet twist.
