Peanut Butter Fudge (S)

Fudge is a delicious treat to take to any get together!  I made a cake this past year that was a HUGE hit, Peanut Butter Fudge Cake!  The frosting alone, is more than divine.  I was thinking of it today and figured I'd post it up for you in it's own little post.  It's a heavier dessert, but so worth it.  Rich and gooey fudge..what's not to love? pbfudge Peanut Butter Fudge (S)
  • 1/2 block cream cheese (4 oz)
  • 1/4 cup of THM Sweet Blend (taste it and add a little more sweetener if you like super sweet)
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/4 cup All-Natural Peanut Butter
  • 1/3 cup plus 1 tbs of unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 tsp of vanilla
Directions: I put all the ingredients in a small saucepan and stir until it is melted together nicely on medium heat.  I did get it to a soft boil. It was a little lumpy so I used my handheld blender after I took it off the heat. Perfecto! Then, pour it into a 9 by 9 glass baking dish and chill. I used mini muffin tins this time.  How cute are these!?  I love this little glass dish I found at a garage sale.  I keep mine in the refrigerator.  I'd cut this up into small pieces.  It is very rich! I don't love to set serving sizes because I think we each know there is  a big difference between eating half of the pan and eating two pieces.  Just be reasonable. Printable:

Here is a fun idea for a Christmas gift!  Buy some nice, sturdy disposable spoons and fill them with fudge.  I did mine after it was a bit chilled.  I added some Lily's Chocolate Chips on top or you could use chopped nuts.  I then wrapped it in plastic wrap and tied on some twine.  Just a cute idea for your THM friends, teachers or family. pbspoonEnjoy this rich, divine treat!  Wonderful desserts sure can be the ticket to keeping you on track during the Holiday months.

      It doesn’t for me. Erythritol leaves a cold taste in my mouth so I don’t use it much. There is some in the Sweet Blend, but it has never tasted like that to me. It’s my favorite sweetener! 😉

    Have you tried adding nuts? Which kind? How much? I was wondering if they would change the texture of the fudge.

    • godzgaljen@gmail.com

      I haven’t. I’m sure you could add some chopped nuts if you like those in your fudge. 🙂

    • Lindsey

      I used natural crunchy peanut butter-It was really good. Added just enough texture.

    Thank you for this recipe! It’s sitting my in fridge, setting – hopefully. (my hubs said it’s taking alot longer than it should, because I keep opening my fridge every 5 minutes to check it) 😉 I’ve been looking for another non-chocolatey, super yummy recipe (I get migraines with chocolate, alot). This is super yummy. Thank you!

    Could you substitute with the THM Pure Stevia Extract Powder, and if so, how much?

    • godzgaljen@gmail.com

      If you aren’t on THM, I guess you could. If you don’t have the unsweetened almond, you could use heavy cream…

    Do you think PB powder would work the same? Would I need to add more liquids?
    I’ve been looking for easy PB fudge. Thanks!

    • godzgaljen@gmail.com

      I’ve been wondering about that myself. I have no idea! I guess you could add a little at a time to see. Maybe you could mix up the peanut flour/water and make 1/4 cup and try it…

  8. Amanda

    Half the pan is two pieces! When you cut the pan into four slices… 😉 I’m using this for a brownie topping! Thanks for the awesome recipe

    I made this and it has a nice flavor. Some butter grease on the top, but way too thin to make a dab like yours. I wonder whar went wrong? I used almond butter instead of pb. But i wouldnt think that would make a difference. Thanks.

    I’m making this right now as written. Wondering if coconut oil could replace the butter?

    • godzgaljen@gmail.com

      Nicki, I’ve not made it that way to say if it’s just as good. I know many sub that ingredient for the other successfully in other recipes. Sorry I’m not more help.

      • Nicki

        Like I said in the first comment, I made it exactly as written, but it didn’t get firm. Is it suppose to? I put it in a mini muffin tin in the fridge, but I’m still eating it out of the muffin cups with a spoon. I think I’ll freeze them. Probably stick to the paper cups, but then they could be eaten as finger food. I love peanut butter, and these are DELICIOUS!!!

  14. Libby

    i just made this fudge. It is in the fridge now, but I tasted it before chilling it!!! O.M.Gosh!!! it is delicious…thank you so much!!!

  15. aretha

    can I leave out the peanut butter? don’t like peanut butter in food LOL

  16. Ally

    This is my go-to fudge recipe, just because it is so simple, and only has ingredients that I pretty much always have on hand! No extra steps, no coconut cream like so many. I’ve also added cocoa for a chocolate fudge – wish I could say how much, but I just added till it tasted right! 1/2 c.?. I don’t really taste the peanut butter flavor when it’s sufficiently chocolatey for my taste, but if someone needed to nix the nuts entirely, I think cocoa plus a bit of coconut oil or extra butter would be a good place to start.

    • Ally

      FOLKS. Make it with added cocoa and leave it in the freezer. It develops the most amazing meltaway texture.

    • Laura

      I *think* there used to only be super sweet and they just called it sweet blend. When they made gentle sweet it got a new name 🙂
