Sweet and creamy fudge bursting with peanut butter flavor. With only two ingredients, this recipe will get you out of the kitchen and spending time with your family!
I mentioned in a previous post that fudge was a special Christmas time tradition at our house. Growing up, our neighbor would bring us beautiful little Christmas tins filled with two different kinds of fudge – chocolate and peanut butter. Back then, I would have been hard pressed to say which flavor was my favorite, but now I would definitely say peanut butter!
My 2 Ingredient Fudge has been such a popular post, that I knew I needed to have a peanut butter option as well! I giggle a little bit, because really it may be a stretch to even call this a separate recipe! However, several people have been asking for it, so here it is.
All you need is one batch of my 3 Ingredient Sweetened Condensed Milk and 1/2 cup natural peanut butter. Really! How much easier can it get? (Please note that the 3 Ingredient Sweetened Condensed milk is sugar free and low carb.) I understand that this recipe is 2 ingredient ONLY if you already have the condensed milk already made. But really, you should always have a jar of that in your fridge! That sweetened condensed milk recipe has been life changing for me! (Well, . . . that may be a bit of a stretch, but it is REALLY good!)
This fudge is a little more of a soft set than the chocolate variety, but I think it is much more creamy. I would never be ashamed to take this to a party or give it away as a gift! I put the fudge in the freezer (or on my front porch) to harden initially, but I usually store it in the refrigerator. You don’t even want to know how many pieces I ate while I was photographing this post! I even had a piece or two as a dessert to my breakfast this morning! (Is that what you call balance??)

This looks so good! And very easy!
I love how simple this recipe is! I’ve never tried peanut butter fudge before but I have no excuse now!
How many pieces can we have?
I usually have a couple at a time. 🙂
PB Fudge sounds like a must try. So simple too 🙂
Fudge! Fudge! Fudge! I love how simple this recipe is, Sarah. My mother made wonderful peanut butter fudge that I haven’t had in 30 years. Who knew it could be so simple. Thanks.
This is so easy, how brilliant. Definitely a must try.
This is literally one of the best things I’ve ever tasted. Unbelievable!! The peanut butter taste is just so bright and sharp. Thank you. I ❤️ keto!
I’ve been on low carb since March! This is the first desert I e made that is really satisfying:) Love it. Thank you.
What is meant by one recipe of the condensed milk?
One cup? One can?
The condensed milk recipe is linked in the recipe card. You should use the entire amount in the fudge. It equals about 1 cup.
On a previous post you said the SCM recipe equals about 1 1/4 cup. Does it make a big difference if it’s more than a cup?
No, I don’t think the 1/4 cup will make that big of a difference in the fudge recipes.
This was amazing, whole family lived it, thanks!!!
So I️ made the condensed milk but used 1/2 cup for the Two Ingtedient Chocolate Fudge. So now I’m not sure how much peanut butter I should use for the remainder? ? I think I have approx 3/4 to 1 cup left. Thanks for your help!
I would probably use 1/3 cup of peanut butter. 🙂
Thanks! Trying it tonight!
Hi,
I made the fudge but it doesnt get hard.
What did i do wrong?
Thanks
This fudge never does get completely solid (like fudge made with chocolate chips). It is much softer, I recommend keeping it in the refrigerator or even freezer for best results.
Can I put this in a silicon mold like the chocolate fudge to make smaller shapes? I’d like to then dip them in the 2 ingredient fudge (before it hardens) to make buckeyes.
Yes, that would be awesome!
Hi, Can I use your 2 ingredient condensed milk, instead of your 3 ingrdient version? Thanks as always for your wonderful recipes!!
Yes, Absolutely!
Can this be made with the 2 ingredient condensed milk?
Yes!
My “milk” separated as soon as i added the peanut butter to it and started stirring it. My pan of fudge has an oil layer on top. Did i do something wrong?
No, that appears to happen at times, but I have never found that it affects the flavor. I would try to stir it well with a whisk to see if that helps.
I may just not be seeing it but do you have the carb, fat, protein totals for this? I made it and it is yummy. Thanks.
I figured out my question so need to answer you can remove it. Thanks
I’m sorry, this recipe was published before I started adding macros to my recipes.
Ok, well I am doing this the Whole Foods trim healthy mama style plan. What do you think is the minimum amount of coconut sugar or honey I can put in this? If you had to guess. Thanks so much!
I would say probably 1/3 to 1/2 cup coconut sugar could be used to sweeten the “Sweetened Condensed Milk” for this recipe. However, I have never tried it, so I’m not 100% sure. 🙂
Did you try the coconut sugar and how did it turn out?
As the wife of a type 2 diabetic and a mom of a type 1, I love that you have low carb fudge recipes! That is one thing my guys have always missed being able to have at Christmas. This year, they’re getting a special treat. Thank you so much!!
