While it is easy on the wallet, this 2 Ingredient Fudge does not skimp on flavor for a no-bake fudge! Now fudge can normally have a complicated process to make but this fudge is so easy to make. Plus as a 2 ingredient dessert, you probably have the ingredients on hand anyhow!

When I first saw the recipe on -> Midlife Healthy Living  I knew I had to try it. The multistep process of fudge has always intimated me so making fudge using my microwave seemed genius and easy! As an added bonus this recipe is easy for kids to make with minor help, I mean peanut butter and frosting fudge sounds amazing right?

2 Ingredient Fudge Ingredients:

  • Frosting– Rich and creamy style of frostings is what works best for this recipe. The Cream Cheese frostings and the whipped frostings will not work on this. The Rainbow Chip and Coconut Peacan frosting will not turn out well in this recipe either.
  • Creamy Peanut Butter– Any brand of creamy peanut butter works amazingly in this recipe; I would avoid ones with honey or jelly. Chunky peanut butter can be used for that consistency instead of a smooth fudge.

how to make fudge with frosting:

Scoop all the frosting and peanut butter into a microwave-safe container.

I used a Pyrex measuring cup; having the handle makes it easier to pour the fudge into the pan when you are done. Plus, being see-through made it easier to ensure everything was well-mixed. the handle to make pouring easier.  Plus, it was easy to see that I had mixed it all.

How To store fudge made with frosting:

Store this fudge in an airtight container. This can be stored on the counter, but the fudge will soften quite a bit. For a firmer fudge consistency, store in the fridge.

        There is NO CHOCOLATE in either place. Peanut butter is tan. And the recipe doesn’t have any chocolate listed either.

    Peanut butter and chocolate frosting would certainly taste good together. I would think it would be sweet, yes?

    If no microwave is it possible to make in a sauce pan on low heat.
