Hold onto your hats because I have *the easiest* fudge recipe for you! If you’ve been here for a while, you know I love fudge as much as the next person! I’ve got Microwave Fudge, Fantasy Fudge, and Peanut Butter Fudge that are fan favorites, but today, I’m going to introduce you to the new kid on block: Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup Fudge. It’s a simple, 3 ingredient, no-bake recipe that is a must-make during the holiday season!

Why You’ll Love This Creamy Peanut Butter Fudge Recipe!

This fudge recipe is an indulgent treat for those of you who can’t resist an epic peanut butter + chocolate combo. It’s rich, smooth, creamy, and only needs 3 ingredients. Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups is one of them! It’s completely divine.

Only 3 Main Ingredients Required!

Is it really possible to make a delicious treat with only 3 simple ingredients? ABSOLUTELY! Here’s what you’ll need:

• Milk chocolate chips – Brings in the fudgy-chocolate part of this recipe. If you don’t want it as sweet, try it with semi-sweet chocolate chips!
• Sweetened condensed milk – Helps make the fudge even sweeter than possible and gives it the creamy texture. Some ask if you can swap out the sweetened condensed milk for evaporated milk, and you can’t. They aren’t the same, so stick with what’s in the recipe!
• Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups – An obvious ingredient for this recipe! But it’s the best part!

How to Make Reese’s Fudge

Not only does this fudge recipe have easy ingredients, it has easy instructions too! It takes just 10 minutes to whip up, but it does need time to set up, so you’ll need to account for that. For full recipe details, including ingredient measurements, see the printable recipe card down below.

Step 1- Prep a Square Baking Pan

Line a 8×8 square dish (glass or aluminum pan will work) with aluminum foil (or parchment paper) and lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray. Unrap 16 whole Reese’s cups and line the bottom of the pan with them. Set aside.

Step 2- Make the Fudge Mixture

In a large bowl (make sure it’s microwave safe!), stir the chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk together and microwave in 30 second increments until smooth and velvety, stirring in between each increment. Pour the melted chocolate mixture over the peanut butter cups and smooth the top of the fudge with a silicon spatula.

Step 3- Top With Chopped PB Cups + Let Fudge Set Up

Chop up the 9 remaining peanut butter cups into small pieces and press into the top of the fudge mixture. Bring to room temperature (it usually takes about an hour) and then refrigerate the whole pan until solid. Once the fudge is firm, remove from the pan using the foil to lift out, and cut into squares. Tada! Reese’s Fudge! It’s a huge hit every time I make it! ENJOY!

Storing Directions

If there’s any fudge leftover, you can store it in an airtight container for about two weeks.

In the Fridge

If you’re wanting to extend the life of the fudge beyond two weeks, store in the fridge for up to 4 weeks!

In the Freezer

And if you want to save this fudge EVEN LONGER. Wrap the fudge in foil and place in a freezer bag or an airtight container and freeze up to 3 months.
