Who doesn’t love fudge?

It’s quite possibly one of the best candies ever invented.

If you’re the type that drools every time you enter a candy shop that is making fresh fudge, chances are you’ve paid a pretty penny for some delicious fudge.

But, you can make fudge at home.

Of course, watching homemade fudge be made can be intimidating. However, you don’t have to invest as much time or use as many ingredients to get delicious fudge. In fact, you can use only three ingredients.

This three ingredient fudge allows you to enjoy delicious peanut butter fudge without spending a lot of time or money.

All you need to whip this delicious fudge together is dark chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, and sweetened condensed milk. That’s it.

Even better is the fact that it cooks in the microwave for less than one minute! Who doesn’t have one minute to make some yummy fudge?

Once you learn the technique, don’t be afraid to try different flavor combinations. You can mix different kinds of chips to create different flavors. Or you could just use one flavor. For an extra tasty treat you can top the fudge with different toppings. You could do chopped candy bars, nuts, cookies, etc. Just play around with it.

    I love peanut butter fudge! I’ve never made it myself b/c I would probably eat the whole pan. I have guests coming so maybe I’ll make it when there is more than just me to eat it. Yum!
