Ingredients
Scale
- 16 ounces Creamy Peanut Butter (regular commercial brand works best)
- 16 ounces Vanilla Frosting (one standard tub, ready-to-spread)
- 1/4 cup Festive Christmas Sprinkles (red, green, and white)
Instructions
- Step 1: Preparation
Start by lining an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper. Ensure the paper hangs over the edges slightly so you can easily lift the fudge out later. If you do not have parchment paper, a thorough coating of non-stick cooking spray will work, though the paper makes for cleaner cuts. Set the pan aside and clear a small space in your refrigerator for chilling. - Step 2: Heating and Mixing
Remove the lid and foil seal from the vanilla frosting tub. Place the frosting in a microwave-safe bowl and heat it for about 30 to 45 seconds until it reaches a pourable, liquid consistency. Add the entire jar of creamy peanut butter into the bowl with the warm frosting. Stir the two ingredients together vigorously using a spatula until the mixture is completely smooth and no streaks remain. The residual heat from the frosting will soften the peanut butter perfectly. - Step 3: Setting and Decorating
Pour the smooth mixture into your prepared baking pan and use a spatula to level the top. While the fudge is still warm and tacky, generously scatter your Christmas sprinkles across the surface. Gently press the sprinkles down with the back of a spoon to ensure they stick. Place the pan in the refrigerator for at least two hours, or until the fudge is firm to the touch. Once set, lift the fudge out using the parchment paper edges and slice into 1-inch squares.
