Cashew Peanut Butter Fudge!
Celebrate your Holidays with delicious, old-fashioned peanut butter fudge loaded with cashews. It's an awesome sweet and salty combo! Your tastebuds won't know what to do with themselves!
Prep Time5 mins
Ingredients
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk I used fat-free
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/4 cups confectioner's powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup salted cashews
- Optional 1/4 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Spray an 8" or 9" square brownie pan lightly with non-stick spray. (I used a 9")
- Add peanut butter and sweetened condensed milk in a large microwave-safe bowl.
- Heat in microwave on high for 1 minute. Stir. Return to microwave for 20 seconds. Repeat until peanut butter and milk are well incorporated.
- Add salt and vanilla and stir until well blended.
- Add confectioner's sugar gradually until fudge's consistency becomes thick.
- Add cashews and stir in, then pour into prepared pan and spread out.
- Add a few extra cashews to top and press in gently.
- Add mini chocolate chips, but don't press in.
- Fudge will still be warm, so they will stick to the fudge.
- Chill in refrigerator for at least 20 minutes.
- Cut into squares and enjoy!
