Prep Time 5 minutes
Chill time 1 hour
Total Time 1 hour 5 minutes
Servings 24 squares

Ingredients

  • cup (160 g) peanut butter (I used smooth that contains 100% peanuts only)
  • 4.4 oz (125 g) dark chocolate (70-85% cocoa, or sweeter if preferred)

Optional Add-ins

  • 1 Tbsp (20 g) agave or maple syrup (skip if using sweeter chocolate)
  • A small handful of chopped nuts e.g. pistachios, almonds, or walnuts for extra crunch and flavor

Instructions

  • You can watch the video for visual instructions.
    Chop or break the chocolate into small pieces and combine it with the peanut butter in a heatproof bowl. Gently melt both together in a double boiler (a bowl set over a saucepan with an inch of simmering water), stirring occasionally until smooth.
    Alternatively, for an easy microwave method, melt the chocolate and peanut butter together in 20-second increments, stirring in between to avoid burning.
  • Once fully melted and smooth, stir in the syrup if using, then fold in any optional mix-ins.
  • Pour the mixture into a small silicone mold (mine has individual 'bar' molds), parchment paper lined loaf pan, or your preferred container, smooth the top with a spatula, and optionally add toppings (like nuts/choc chips).
  • Chill in the fridge or freezer for 1-2 hours until firm/set, then slice into squares and enjoy!

Notes

  • For firmer or softer fudge: Adjust the chocolate-to-peanut butter ratio. More peanut butter will soften it.
  • For thinner/thicker fudge: Change the size of the pan/mold you use and adjust the chill time.
