Peanut Butter Banana Fudge

Three squares of Peanut Butter Fudge stacked on a wooden slice

Fudge.

It’s a holiday staple, but I am a huge proponent of fudge in all the months.

Right?

It’s only fair.

Because I don’t get what makes fudge only good to gift.  I mean, don’t you sit around funneling fudge into your face all year long?

Well, you should.

Because fudge rules.

Also, I didn’t know it, but peanut butter and banana kinda rules too.

I always said that the flavor combination “wasn’t my favorite”.  Which are actually my code words for “yack, gross, sucks, blech.”

But I know some people really like it.

Well, I’ll tellyou…this fudge has changed my mind.

Elvis was onto something.

Hey, behbeh.
First grab your banana chips…
Give them a pretty good chop. You’ll need 3/4 cup…
Over a double boiler melt your peanut butter chips, 2 Tbsp butter and sweetened condensed milk.
I always use a double boiler because the microwave and I don’t agree on melting chocolate.
When that’s melted, stir in your banana chips.
Next up you’ll need your banana liquidy. It gave me the chance to use the miniature food processor that I thought I had to have.
Again, over the double boiler, melt your white chocolate, butter and liquid banana…
When that’s melted, pour it over your peanut butter layer…
Let it set up and then cut into squares…
You don’t have to eat on a tiny piece of wood, like I did.

    Help please I made this recipe yesterday morning and followed everything except I didn’t add banana chips. Well I finished it and put it away to chill to set and here it is 9:30pm the next day and it still hasn’t set , I even tried freezing it and it is still sticky and not hard enough to cut.
    Is there anything else I can do or should I just pass spoons around for everyone to dig in. lol

  2. This looks amazing! I so want to make this but have never seen peanut butter bits in Australia. What could I substitute them with? Would white chocolate bits and peanut butter work?

  3. I feel like I can call you and ask this question, but we are complete strangers and well, that would be weird. What do you think about adding a cup of mini marshmallows right before I pour the PB layer in the pan? Bad idea? Would those crunchy mini marshmallow bits be good? Any thoughts, anybody? I’m afraid of change. 😉

  4. can’t wait to try this one!!
    also, you read my mind. The first thing I thought when I saw the picture: “But I don’t have any pieces of wood to serve it on! Noooooo…..”
    Happy Holidays!

    Sounds fantastic 🙂 peanut butter and banana is my 2nd favourite combination (with peanut butter & chocolate grabbing the top spot!) Try a peanut butter and banana milkshake (peanut butter, banana, milk and icecream blended) – yum!

    The whole “not my favorite” thing? When kiddo was younger, I made him say that instead of telling me that he didn’t like what I made for dinner. We went through a good two years there where everything was “not my favorite.” 😉

    Such a great idea for fudge flavor!
