Easy

This incredibly delicious and deceptively simple fudge is a must-try for any chocolate and peanut butter fanatic. It requires minimal effort and comes together quickly, making it the perfect no-fuss recipe to tackle even after a hectic workday.

Chef's Note: Quality matters here! Ensure you use a good brand of chocolate—if the quality is poor, it may seize or curdle when melting with the condensed milk. A high-quality sweetened condensed milk is equally important for a smooth, perfect texture.

Ingredient Notes:

Dark Chocolate. I used bittersweet chocolate with a cocoa content of approximately 60%. You may substitute it with semi-sweet chocolate 55% cocoa), but I do not recommend using milk chocolate as the final fudge will be excessively sweet.
White Chocolate. This ingredient is absolutely essential for the peanut butter layer. As with the dark chocolate, choose a high-quality brand for the best texture and flavor.
Sweetened Condensed Milk. Use the highest quality condensed milk you can find—the kind that tastes delicious on its own. Do not substitute with caramelized or boiled condensed milk (like dulce de leche).
Peanut Butter. You must use a smooth (creamy) peanut butter for this recipe to ensure a velvety fudge texture.
Baking Soda. The baking soda is added to the syrup mixture to help prevent sugar crystallization and ensures the fudge sets with a smooth, silky texture.

Let’s start cooking!

Take two saucepans. Pour the condensed milk and dark chocolate into one of the pans. Add baking soda.

Pour condensed milk, white chocolate, and peanut paste into the other saucepan. Add baking soda.

Place the dark chocolate saucepan on the stove. Over medium-high heat, stir constantly with a whisk until the chocolate melts, then immediately remove from heat.

Transfer to a parchment-lined baking dish and spread.

Melt the white chocolate in the same way. Spread it evenly on top of the dark fudge.

Refrigerate for 1-2 hours until set.

Cut into squares and serve.

Enjoy!
