Celebrate your holidays with this easy, delicious, super creamy peanut butter fudge loaded with salty roasted cashews.  It’s such an awesome sweet and salty combo!  One of our favorites for sure!

And you know what?  Your taste-buds won’t know what to do with themselves!

A huge applause for you peanut butter lovers, because it’s all peanut-buttery delicious!  

So easy to make, this fudge can be started in the microwave with the peanut butter and sweetened condensed milk.  Once it’s been heated through, add some vanilla, salt, powdered sugar and cashews and thoroughly combine together. 

That’s it…Except add a bunch of cashews on top of the fudge.  So festive looking! 

Peanut butter fudge with crunchy, salty cashews make this a double nutty fudgy treat!  Perfect when you want a recipe that doesn’t require a lot of attention, yet tastes yummy!

    This is a great recipe! My first time making them. I cut back the powdered sugar to less than half a cup because it just seemed like so much sugar on top of the condensed milk. I know fudge is meant to be really sweet but these turned out amazing even with less sugar.
