Creamy Peanut Butter Fudge

My brother tasted this creamy fudge at my house years ago and called us the very next night for the recipe. He couldn’t stop thinking about it and needed to make it right away.

I gave him the recipe and he couldn’t believe this was all there is to it. With just four ingredients, this is one of the best peanut butter fudge recipes I’ve ever tasted, and it is also beyond simple to make.

I’ve been making this fudge recipe now for over 10 years now and it’s a solid keeper. Without fail, everyone who tastes it requests the recipe immediately.

Recipe for Peanut Butter Fudge

I was so excited to find Alton Brown’s recipe for Peanut Butter Fudge almost ten years ago and it’s become a family and friend favorite over the years.

It is an awesome way to impress someone with a gift that takes just minutes to put together. I can’t think of anyone who likes peanut butter and wouldn’t be excited to receive a box full of this during the holidays.

Put this recipe on your Christmas treat list now and skip the baking! It’s perfect to snack on while you’re wrapping gifts or for enjoying next to a crackling fireplace with the ones you love.

With all the attention we give chocolate fudge, I think the goodness of peanut butter fudge gets overlooked.

You only need a handful of ingredients to make these chewy, chocolate and peanut butter filled Peanut Butter Cookie Cups!

Inspired by everyone’s favorite old-fashioned peanut butter cookies, these very simple to make four-ingredient peanut butter cookies are a kid and adult favorite whether you choose to make them with or without the added chocolate.

Made in a mini muffin tin, the small peanut butter cups are the perfect size to hold a peanut butter cup. Press the chocolates into the warm cookies right out of the oven.

I recommend having all the chocolates unwrapped and ready to go when you pull the cookie cups from the oven. Set them on top and press them into the cookies with the back of a spoon to avoid getting chocolate all over your fingers.

The chocolate will melt and then firm up again if the house is cool. When making these in the summer, I like to tuck them into the fridge for an hour or so to speed up the process.

If you choose to make these cookies without the peanut butter cups, the larger cookie cups will sink a bit (you want this to happen!) and create a rich, gooey perfect base for a peanut butter cookie ice cream sundae.

Seriously, what’s not to love about a warm gooey peanut butter cookie, topped with cold ice cream, drizzled with hot fudge or chocolate sauce??

No Bake Chocolate Crunch Bars

Chocolate and peanut butter are mixed with crunchy cereal to make these super easy No Bake Chocolate Crunch Bars. 

When I was very young, I went camping with the Girl Scouts and our counselor taught us to make what she called “Babe Ruth Bars.” (More on that name in a minute.)

These are so easy to make. Our counselor helped me make these bars by stirring the ingredients together over the campfire, rolling them into a log, chilling and slicing them.

I wasn’t a girl scout for very long so I couldn’t have been more than 7 or 8 years old. We ate these gathered around the fire and I absolutely loved them.

My counselor wrote out the recipe for me and I took it home.

My grandmother was sweet enough to save that recipe for me and over the following years, we would make those bars on special occasions. I remembered the recipe a while back and I dug it out of my old cookbook.

I read it several times and then made a trip to the store, just to look at the ingredients in an actual Babe Ruth bar. Uhm, there is no similarity at all.

I have no idea why these were called Babe Ruth Bars and the name now makes me laugh.

I’ve since swapped out half the ingredients, so they are likely to be even farther from the original. Corn flakes, chocolate chips, honey, and peanut butter get melted together and then chilled to create a perfect no-bake dessert bar.
