Peanut Butter Cup Cheesecake Fudge

Years ago an agent approached me about making a fudge cookbook. She had seen the numerous fudge recipes on my site and thought it would make a great book. I thought so too! Unfortunately, the book didn’t pan out but I realized a few weeks ago that I haven’t shared those amazing recipes that I developed years ago with all of you.

I thought it was only right that I share one of my favorites with you this holiday season: Peanut Butter Cup Cheesecake Fudge.

You guys, it is even better than it sounds and will take about 5 minutes to make start to finish. In fact, you need to just print out the recipe now and get in the kitchen. It’s just that good.

This fudge is based of the “magic fudge” recipe that combines sweetened condensed milk and chocolate chip creating a super simple fudge.

I have found over the years that adding some butter and vanilla extract to this 2-ingredient fix gives the fudge a creamier, more authentic fudge flavor and texture.

I upped the ante with this cheesecake fudge by adding in Challenge Cream Cheese resulting in the creamiest most delectable fudge of your life. It reminds me of a cheesecake served at a restaurant that is famous for it’s cheesecakes. It’s that good.

You guys know I don’t joke about cheesecake or fudge.
