Late-Night Indulgence










Super Simple Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge

Makes 24 servings of delectable, low cholesterol, (almost)dairy-free fudge.

Ingredients:
½ cup natural peanut butter
½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
½ cup white sugar

Directions:
5. Mix together the peanut butter, chocolate chips, and sugar in a microwave safe bowl.
6. Microwave on high for 1 minute and mix vigorously.
7. Pour the fudge onto a plate or pan lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
8. Freeze for one hour.
9. Remove the pan, peel off the paper or foil, and cut into small cubes.
10. Enjoy immediately or store in the freezer for later consumption.

Hints:
• Use chunky peanut butter if you would like small pieces of nuts in your fudge. If you prefer to avoid the nutty bites, then go for creamy peanut butter.
• This fudge melts rapidly! Don’t leave it sitting out for too long or you will end up with peanut butter chocolate frosting instead of fudge (unless that is what you desire).
• For those with peanut allergies or simply craving some even more gourmet nut fudges, substitute almond butter, hazelnut butter, or cashew butter instead of the peanut butter.
