Chocolate Peanut-Butter Fudge

By mamacasma

Ingredients

• nonstick cooking spray, for the pan
• 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
• 1 10.5-ounce bag miniature marshmallows
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 cup creamy peanut butter
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
• 16 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
• 1/4 cup coarsely chopped peanuts

Preparation

Step 1

Coat an 8-inch square baking pan with nonstick cooking spray and line with a piece of parchment or wax paper, leaving an overhang on two sides.
In a medium saucepan, combine the butter, marshmallows, sugar, peanut butter, cream, and salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the marshmallows have melted and the mixture is smooth, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the chocolate and stir until melted.
Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and sprinkle with the peanuts. Let cool for 30 minutes, then refrigerate until set, at least 3 hours and up to overnight. Use the paper to lift the fudge out of the pan; cut into 36 squares.
