Ingredients

Directions

  2. In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the Reese's Peanut Butter chips and two-thirds of the sweetened condensed milk.
  3. Microwave on high for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes, stirring well after 1 minute, until the chips are completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
  4. Stir in half of the vanilla extract (1/2 tsp) into the peanut butter mixture.
  5. Spread the peanut butter mixture evenly into the prepared pan.
  6. In the same bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and the remaining sweetened condensed milk.
  7. Microwave on high for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes, stirring after 1 minute, until melted and smooth.
  8. Stir the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract into the chocolate mixture.
  9. Pour the chocolate mixture over the peanut butter layer, spreading it evenly to cover the entire surface.
  10. Cover the pan and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the fudge is firm.
  11. Lift the fudge out of the pan using the foil overhang and cut into 1-inch squares.
  12. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
