Note
For best results, ensure the chocolate is fully melted before adding the milk to prevent lumps.
Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks, or freeze for up to 3 months.
You can substitute creamy peanut butter if you prefer a smoother texture, but crunchy adds a delightful contrast.
If the fudge seems too soft after chilling, return it to the refrigerator for an additional 30 minutes.
