summer winds down here in the north and end-of-summer family picnics, back to school and cozier weather fill our thoughts! so it's the perfect time for a scrumptious & yummy dessert recipe, right?!
today, Brie of BKD signatures offers one of her family faves: double-decker chocolate & peanut butter fudge. (don't worry: it's not healthy any-which-way you cut it, but sure does look delicious!)
..................
Double Decker Fudge
by Brie
2 cups (12oz package) Peanut Butter Chips (like Reese) , divided
¼ cup butter, melted
½ cup cocoa (like Hershey's)
1 teaspoon vanilla
4 ½ cups sugar
1 jar (7oz) marshmallow crème
1 ½ cups (12oz can) evaporated milk
¼ cup butter
1. Line a 13x9x2-inch pan with foil. Place 1 cup peanut butter chips in medium bowl; set aside. In second medium bowl, blend ¼ cup melted butter, cocoa and vanilla until smooth; add 1 cup peanut butter chips.
2. In heavy 4-quart saucepan, combine sugar, marshmallow crème, evaporated milk and ¼ cup butter. Cook, stirring constantly, over medium heat until mixture comes to a rolling boil; boil and stir 5 minutes.
3. Remove from heat. Immediately add half of hot mixture to bowl with peanut butter chips only. Pour remainder into cocoa mixture; stir to blend.
4. Beat peanut butter mixture until chips are completely melted; spread evenly in prepared pan.
5. Beat cocoa mixture until chips are melted and mixture thickens. Spread evenly over top of peanut butter layer.
6. Cool; remove from pan. Remove foil; cut into squares. Store in airtight container in a cool, dry place.
