Ingredients
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips
- 1 cup peanut butter chips
- 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1½ cups Reese's peanut butter cups chopped, reserve for topping
Instructions
- Line a 9" x 9" (or 8" x 8") square pan with parchment paper and set aside.
- Place the chocolate chips into one large bowl and the peanut butter chips into another large bowl. In a microwave-safe bowl, add the sweetened condensed milk. Heat on high for 1 minute, or until boiling, then pour half of the sweetened condensed milk onto the chocolate chips and the other half onto the peanut butter chips.
- If needed, heat again for 30 seconds, then remove and stir, repeating at 30-second intervals until all of the chips are melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Once the chocolate has completely melted, add the vanilla extract to the chocolate mixture and pour the fudge into the prepared baking dish, alternating the peanut butter and chocolate. Swirl the flavors together with a small spoon. Sprinkle the chopped Reese's peanut butter cups on top of the fudge and press into the fudge with the palm of your hand.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to 24 hours, then cut into 1" cubes. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or up to 3 months in the freezer. Enjoy!
