LAURA'S CHOCOLATE-PEANUT BUTTER DREAMS
Steps:
- 2 squares unsweetened baking chocolate 12 oz of semi-sweet choc. morsels 1/2 t of vanilla 1/4 t of salt 3/4 C of sugar 3/4 C of flour 1 egg 1/2 C of butter 1/2 C of peanut butter Mix sugar and butter and salt in blender until creamy. Add egg and vanilla and blend. Add flour and blend. Melt all chocolate in double boiler and blend into the mix. Fold in peanut butter. Sometimes I let the dough chill a little and this might help keep the cookies from flattening out. Bake in 350 degree oven for 8 1/2 minutes, until firm and beginning to texture on the outside. Don't overbake!
Tips:
- Use creamy peanut butter. This will help the fudge to be smooth and creamy.
- Don't overcook the fudge. Otherwise, it will be dry and crumbly.
- Let the fudge cool completely before cutting it. This will help it to set properly.
- Store the fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It will keep for up to two weeks.
- You can use any type of chocolate chips you like. Milk chocolate, dark chocolate, or semi-sweet chocolate all work well.
- If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can use the cold water test to check if the fudge is done. Drop a small amount of fudge into a bowl of cold water. If it forms a soft ball, the fudge is done.
- You can decorate the fudge with chopped nuts, sprinkles, or other toppings.
Conclusion:
Chocolate peanut butter fudge is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a rich and creamy fudge that is sure to satisfy your sweet tooth.
