Note
For best results, use creamy peanut butter for easier swirling and a smoother texture.
Store the fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
If the chocolate becomes too hot and separates, let it cool slightly and stir vigorously to bring it back together.
You can vary the swirl pattern by using a toothpick instead of a knife for finer, more intricate designs.
