- Combine sweetened condensed milk, peanut butter chips, and creamy peanut butter in a microwave-safe bowl.
- Microwave on high for 1 minute, then remove and stir thoroughly.
- Continue microwaving in 15-second intervals, stirring after each, until completely melted and smooth.

- Lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment paper and cut into 16–20 squares.
Notes
Use sweetened condensed milk, not evaporated milk.
Regular creamy peanut butter gives the most consistent texture.
Avoid overheating the peanut butter chips.
Refrigerate until fully firm before slicing.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks for best quality.
Freeze for up to 2–3 months for longer storage.
