Healthy Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge
Healthy Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge is a no-bake treat made by melting dark chocolate chips and stirring in peanut butter to create a smooth mixture. Poured into a loaf pan and topped with chopped roasted peanuts, it firms up in the refrigerator into a creamy, slightly crunchy candy with balanced chocolate and peanut flavors.

Ingredients
- 3/4 cup peanut butter or crunchy if you want texture, natural creamy
- 1 1/3 cups dark chocolate chips Lily's brand
- 1/4 cup peanuts chopped; roasted
Instructions
- Line a 9x5 loaf pan with parchment paper. I like to use on each side to keep the parchment in place.
- Place chips in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave using 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until completely melted and smooth. It will likely take 1 to 3 minutes (depending on your microwave). You can also use a double-boiler to melt your chocolate if desired.
- Quickly add peanut butter to the melted chocolate and stir until completely combined.
- Pour peanut butter chocolate mixture into the prepared loaf pan and spread evenly. Sprinkle chopped peanuts on top.
- Place in the fridge to set for about 30-60 minutes or until firm to the touch.
- Once chocolate has hardened, cut into small square pieces and serve.
- Store fudge in a dark, cool place. It should last about 7-10 days in a cool kitchen or even longer (about 3 weeks or so) in the fridge or freezer. If you keep the fudge in the fridge or freezer, be sure to bring it out and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before eating because the chocolate gets really hard when chilled.
