Reese's Peanut Butter Cup Fudge
Description
Reese's Peanut Butter Cup Fudge starts by lining an 8x8 inch pan with parchment paper and spraying it to prevent sticking. Whole Reese's peanut butter cups are arranged in an even layer on the pan's bottom. Remaining cups are crumbled for topping. Milk chocolate chips are melted over low heat with sweetened condensed milk, stirring until smooth and combined into a fudge-like batter.
This melted chocolate mixture is poured over the layered peanut butter cups in the pan. Immediately afterward, the crumbled peanut butter cups are sprinkled on top and gently pressed into the still-warm fudge to embed them. The fudge is cooled until firm and then refrigerated until fully set. It is then cut into 16 squares for serving.
The fudge offers a creamy, sweet chocolate base with pockets of peanut butter from the embedded cups, adding texture and flavor contrast. It’s a make-ahead dessert that can be portioned easily and shared.
