I made a half batch in a 4x8" bread pan lined with Reynolds Release.
I couldn't smooth the top so I added the chocolate sprinkles and pushed them down with my fingers. Any seasonal sprinkles would look great.
One note: This does make a thinner batch (maybe 1/2" high) fudge.
Either use a smaller dish or increase the recipe by half if you like a thicker piece of fudge.
Quick and Easy Five Ingredient Peanut Butter Fudge-from SimpleFood365.com
2 C sugar
1/2 C milk-I used Half and Half
1/4 tsp salt-I used Kosher
1/2 tsp vanilla
1 C peanut butter, creamy or chunky-your choice-I used creamy
- Add sugar and milk to large sauce pan, heat over medium-high and stir until the sugar melts.
- Stop stirring and let mixture come to a boil. Set timer for about 2.5 minutes (I set my timer for 2 minutes and then one-Mississippi'd to the count of 30:@). Don't stir, just wait.
- Remove from heat, add salt, vanilla and peanut butter. Stir quickly until just combined.
- Pour into foil lined 8x8" pan, quickly smooth top. Cool completely, cut and serve.
