Classic fudge is made with milk, but these vegan peanut butter fudge recipes require zero dairy to be just as decadent. Fudge has always been the kind of confection that is easy to add various flavors and ingredients to, like chocolate, fruit, nuts, and, in this case, peanut butter! Peanut butter fudge is fantastic because the fat of peanuts combines with whatever sweetener you choose to make a super indulgent dessert. And, of course, many of the recipes use the best flavor combination ever, chocolate and peanut butter. Whether you want to make a complex fudge cake or simple fudge bites, you will find a recipe to try! Check out these and more on the Food Monster App!
