Making this peanut butter swirl fudge.

This fudge recipe is perfect for the holidays. The pretty swirled center blends the two flavors together well, and the fudge looks so pretty in a festive holiday gift box.

It really shows your friends that the gift is made with love.

Start by lining your pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil. I leave extra to overlap the edges, so the paper acts like handles later to remove the fudge.

The fudge is ridiculously easy to make.

It has just five ingredients I make it on the stove top in two pans melting the chocolate in one pan and peanut butter, mixed with sweetened condensed milk in another at the same time.

The peanut butter mixtureis combined with sea salt, while the chocolate mixture has the addition of pure vanilla extract. Once both mixtures are melted, remove and stir well.

Add thechocolate layer first and smooth it out, then spoon over the peanut buttermixture on top.

Use a metal spatula or knife to swirl through the fudge layers to blend the two flavors for one delicious taste.

The final step is to add another round of the chocolate layer on the top and smooth it over the swirled peanut butter and chocolate layers. That is all there is to making the fudge!

Into the fridge the pan goes for about 3 hours, until it has set. I can’t wait to try a piece!

Once the fudge has set well, remove the fudge from the pan, and cut into 24 squares.
