I know that most people start thinking about fudge around the holiday season. And since you probably aren’t going to a holiday party any time soon, fudge may not be at the top of your mind. But I say that any no bake dessert is a good idea to make during this hot summer we have been having.

The hardest part about making this fudge is waiting for it to set. It is such a simple recipe, I am definitely making this 3 ingredient chocolate peanut butter fudge for Christmas this year.
3 Ingredient Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge Ingredients
The ingredient list for this creamy chocolate peanut butter fudge recipe is so short, there is no excuse NOT to make it. All you need is:
- sweetened condensed milk
- semi-sweet chocolate chips
- smooth peanut butter
Equipment
- large microwave-safe bowl
- aluminum foil
- 8×8 square pan
- silicone spatula
Tips
Storage: Store this fudge in an airtight container at room temperature in a cool place for up to 3 weeks. You can also wrap it in either wax paper or parchment paper.
Swap out the chocolate chips. Instead of semi-sweet chocolate, try switching it out for milk chocolate, white chocolate or dark chocolate chips.
Make it crunchy. Use crunchy peanut butter or add in some chopped peanuts for an extra crunch. I would not recommend natural peanut butter as it will make the fudge too soft.
Swap out the peanut butter. Try your favorite kind of nut butter in its place such as cashew or almond butter, or try a cookie butter.
Add some extra flavor. Because I wanted it to be a 3 ingredient fudge, I didn’t add any additional flavors. Try adding some vanilla extract or a little sea salt to the fudge mixture. You can also top it with additional ingredients such as Reese’s peanut butter cups or small pieces of Nutter butter cookies.
