At Avdaye, we add lots of tips in all of our recipes – because we are a home cook without any formal training, and we find we are more confident making dishes when we understand why it works, and what each ingredient means to the flavor of a recipe. Our goal is for even the most beginner home cook to feel empowered in the kitchen.

Quick Rich Nutty Chocolate Fudge

With the holidays quickly approaching, its time to start making the good sweets and treats our family looks forward to around Christmas each year- as well as gifts we want to give out to friends, teachers, and our husband's employees. While we love to make special treats to show how much our family and friends mean to us, we don't have a ton of time to make elaborate or incredibly time intensive gifts. This quick and easy peanut butter chocolate fudge makes a great gift- and it is so effortless to make!

We searched and searched for a chocolate and peanut butter fudge that doesn't use peanut butter chips- and had a hard time finding one- so our mom and we tweaked a peanut butter fudge recipe made with peanut butter to find the right mixture of sugar and butter to peanut butter that would firm up well and be easy to spread with traditional fudge.

If you love the taste of fudge- and peanut butter- these deliciously decadent treats will get you in the festive spirit in no time!
