This thick and creamy fudge tastes like a gigantic homemade Reese's Peanut Butter Cup and only has 4 simple ingredients. I promise it's worth your while to save a couple Reese's cups to make this unforgettable fudge!
Ingredients
  • 2 cups peanut butter chips
  • 1 cup milk chocolate chips
  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
  • 24 Reese's Peanut Butter Cups (the normal sized ones), unwrapped and divided
Instructions
  1. Line an 8x8" pan with foil, extending the sides of the foil over the edges of the pan. Spray the foil with cooking spray and set aside.
  2. Line the pan with 4 rows of 4 peanut butter cups (for a total of 16 peanut butter cups lining the bottom of the pan). Roughly chop the remaining peanut butter cups and set them aside.
  3. In a medium saucepan, combine the peanut butter and milk chocolate chips with the sweetened condensed milk over medium-low heat, stirring gently until melted and just about smooth. You don't want to overcook your chocolate or it can seize!
  4. Pour the melted fudge mixture on top of the peanut butter cups in the prepared pan, gently smoothing out the top into an even, flat layer. Immediately top with the remaining chopped peanut butter cups, pressing so gently onto the top of the fudge to allow them to adhere.
  5. Allow the fudge to sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes to cool, then place in the fridge to set for another hour or two. Allow the fudge to come almost to room temperature before cutting into squares.
