Ingredients

1 1/4 cups creamy peanut butter
12 tablespoons butter
3 cups confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

Add the peanut butter and butter to a large mixing bowl and place in the microwave. Microwave for 1-2 minutes, until melted and smooth, stirring every 30 seconds.
Using an electric mixer, beat in the powdered sugar one cup at a time, until smooth.
Beat in the cream, vanilla, and salt.
Line an 8x8 baking dish with parchment paper or foil, leaving the edges hanging out of the pan to make it easy to remove the fudge later.
Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan and refrigerate for 2 hours or until set.
Lift the fudge from the pan and cut into 1-inch squares.
Store in an air-tight container.
