I love fudge but the thought of no chocolate in this peanut butter fudge recipe made me skeptical. Is that even allowed; to exclude chocolate and marshmallow fluff from a fudge recipe? Just wait!
This 5 ingredient peanut butter fudge is amazing. It is creamy and dense. Which is how I like my fudge and every dessert bar recipe.

If you have followed me for a while or you know my sister you know I struggle to not tweak and substitute ingredients and directions.
