(Soft. Crumbly. Made with 3 ingredients and no perfection.)
This isn’t glossy, factory fudge. It’s homemade, slightly cracked on top, and melts in your mouth. All it takes is peanut butter, a sweet base, and a little time — no candy thermometer, no stress, and no rules.

🔥 Instructions: 1. Melt & mix: In a saucepan over low heat, melt butter and peanut butter together until smooth. 2. Add sugar: Remove from heat and stir in powdered sugar until thick and no streaks remain. Add salt or vanilla if desired. 3. Pour & set: Spread into a parchment-lined loaf pan. No need to smooth the top — leave it natural. Chill in the fridge for 1–2 hours. 4. Slice imperfectly: Cut into uneven chunks. Let some crumble. That’s the charm.
