Fudge
    Cup of Yum
  1. Combine white chocolate chips, condensed milk, and peanut butter in a medium-sized saucepan over medium-low heat.
  2. Stir frequently until white chocolate chips are melted and mixture is smooth.
  3. Remove from heat, stir in vanilla extract and salt, and pour evenly over brownie batter in pan, use a spatula to spread evenly, if necessary.
  4. Allow to set for about 5 minutes, and then spread the remaining batter over the fudge, doing your best to cover completely with brownie batter.
  5. Bake on 350°F for 40-50 minutes, use a toothpick to check for doneness at 40 minutes (toothpick should come out with few fudgy moist crumbs, but not wet batter).
  6. Allow to cool completely before cutting and serving. The longer you allow the brownies to set the firmer the fudge will become.

Notes

  • *For a stronger peanut butter flavor, you may use peanut butter chips instead and omit the actual peanut butter. Peanut butter chips can be difficult to find, which is why I wrote this using white chocolate chips.
