How to Make It
Step 1: Prep the Pan
Line your 8×8-inch dish with parchment paper, leaving a little overhang. This makes it easy to lift the fudge out once set.
Step 2: Mix the Magic
In a large bowl, combine the peanut butter and vanilla frosting. Stir for about 30 seconds until smooth and fully blended. The mixture will be thick, like soft cookie dough.
Step 3: Press and Smooth
Transfer the mixture to your prepared pan. Press firmly into the corners and smooth the top with a spoon or spatula.
Step 4: Chill
Refrigerate for 1½–2 hours until firm. For a faster set, freeze for 45–60 minutes.
Step 5: Slice and Serve
Use the parchment overhang to lift the fudge out of the pan. Cut into bite-sized squares with a sharp knife and enjoy!
