Crockpot Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge
This crockpot chocolate peanut butter fudge is the ultimate sweet treat. Made with chocolate chips, peanut butter, vanilla, and sweetened condensed milk for a smooth and creamy slow cooker dessert everyone will love.
Ingredients
- 1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 12-ounce bag chocolate chips semi-sweet (or milk chocolate)
- ½ cup peanut butter
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Start by spraying your crockpot with nonstick cooking spray.
- Add the sweetened condensed milk, chocolate chips, peanut butter, and vanilla to the crockpot.
- Cook on low with the lid off for 1 ½ hours, stirring every 15 minutes.
- After everything is melted and smooth, pour it into an 8x8-inch pan.
- Cool for 30 minutes at room temperature and then refrigerate for 2-3 hours until firm.
Notes
Variations:
- Swap out the chocolate chips for white chocolate chips or peanut butter chips.
- Add some crunch with some crushed pretzels or nuts like chopped walnuts, pecans, or peanuts.
- Add some peppermint extract instead of vanilla and crushed peppermint candies on top before chilling.
- Stir in more peanut butter if you want more peanut butter flavor. You can also swirl some peanut butter on the top.
Helpful Tips:
- Make sure to cook on low heat, as the high heat can scorch the chocolate, making it grainy.
- Leave the lid off; otherwise, condensation can form and drip into the fudge, making it too soft.
- Stir frequently to make sure the chocolate and peanut butter melt evenly. I will usually just set a timer and then just give it a quick stir.
- Use parchment paper to line your baking pan so that it's easier to cut into pieces.
Storage
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
