With a nod to the carefree days of childhood, Peanut Butter and Jelly Ripple Fudge reminds us of a time when there was no such thing as too many PB&J sandwiches. This sweet treat starts with a base of dark brown sugar, its molasses tones laying down a rich, caramel-like foundation. Then comes the smooth, nutty, and ever so slightly salty peanut butter to create a creamy peanut butter fudge that melts in your mouth. And what's peanut butter without its lifelong companion, jelly? Dollops of your favorite jam – strawberry, grape, or even raspberry – ribbon through the fudge. The result? A pan of Peanut Butter and Jelly Ripple Fudge that's a nostalgic nod to your past, yet sophisticated enough to serve at any adult gathering. Perfect for sharing with friends, gifting to family, or savoring quietly with a cup of tea, this fudge is a small batch of happiness just waiting to be made in your kitchen.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Grease an 8 x 8 pan. Line with tinfoil and grease foil. Set aside.
  2. Pour powdered sugar into stand mixer bowl. Set aside.
  3. In a medium pot, melt brown sugar and butter. Once sugar and butter are melted, add cream and bring to a boil. Stir continuously for 3 minutes or until mixture reaches 238°F.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in peanut butter.
  5. Pour mixture over powdered sugar and start mixing using a paddle attachment on low speed. When powdered sugar is absorbed, add vanilla and continue mixing on low speed for about 5 minutes or until fudge is no longer oily in appearance.
  6. Pour 1/2 of batch into prepared pan, spoon half of stirred jam or jelly randomly over fudge and swirl a little with a butter knife. Spoon remaining jam over top and swirl again.
  7. Cover surface with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
  8. Cut into small cubes and devour.
