Can I add toppings to this 2 ingredient peanut butter fudge recipe?
You certainly could! For example, some sprinkles could add a really fun pop of color!
Can I make this fudge with any frosting?
I avoid making my peanut butter fudge recipe with either cream cheese or whipped frostings. The fudge just doesn’t taste the same with those kinds of canned icing.
You can pretty much use any brand of frosting though so feel free to use whatever one you like or have on hand!
How do I double this easy PB fudge recipe?
This recipe is super simple. It’s a 1-to-1 ratio of peanut butter and icing. So however much icing you want to use, just use that much peanut butter to balance it out.
If you want to simply double the recipe you’ll need to use 32 oz of peanut butter and 32 oz of icing.
Storage suggestions
The best way to keep fudge fresh for as long as possible is to keep it in an airtight container at room temperature. This will help to prevent the fudge from drying out before you’re finished with it.

The absolute best and easiest fudge recipe. I made 6 batches to hand out ar xmas and I've used 3 different types of frostings: chocolate, vanilla and butter cream and they all turned out great. Today I used chunky PB, vanilla frosting and whipped in some chocolate chips. Yum

Well I just made this with the vanilla frosting and the peanut butter. I have to say I’m very disappointed in the taste. I’ve made this before but I used the cream cheese frosting and it’s always been a hit and the flavor was great. But I was reading this recipe and I saw where it says “avoid using cream cheese frosting”. So I thought I’d give the vanilla a try. Well, never again.They have absolutely no taste , I’m afraid that there won’t be anyone eating these but me. Other than that they turned out great texture wise. Sorry for the negative comment.

Sorry to hear this. I feel the same way about the cream cheese icing.I think it tastes horrible. I have never had anyone that i have served complain about the taste. It should taste more like peanut butter than anything. Thanks!
