High Five Recipes: Peanut Butter Honey Fudge

By Laura · Mar,16 2009

You know me…I love me some fudge.  This is by far the easiest fudge I have ever made.   And the healthiest.

Peanut Butter Honey Fudge

1 cup natural peanut butter (creamy or crunchy)
3/4 cup honey
1/2 cup milk chocolate chips

Combine all ingredients in a small saucepan.  Cook and stir over low heat until the chocolate chips are melted and blended in (about 30 seconds). 

Spread fudge into an 8×8 inch pan.  Refrigerate until solid.  Cut into 1 inch squares.
————————————

Now, you might be thinking…3/4 cup of honey?!  That’s going to take up a lot of my honey!  (Yes, Pooh Bear, you’re right.)

But you cut this fudge into little squares, and it really does go a long way.  OOh, and it’s so simple and yummy!  (So sorry all you peanut allergy friends out there!)

This is a super simple dessert to throw together real quickly to take somewhere…no baking involved.  Hardly any time involved.  Very little mess involved.

Oh, and you’ve gotta love a High Five Recipe with only THREE ingredients!! :)

Alright now…let’s take a vote again…

Which High Five Recipe would you like to see next:  Popcorn Chicken…or Angeled Eggs?  (Yeah, I just can’t call ‘em “deviled”…I’d rather my eggs be “angeled”…wouldn’t you?)

    This sounds so good. I am going to have to try it. Just curious what do you use for chocolate and peanut butter. I am figuring healthy kinds or semi healthy. :)

    Popcorn chicken please. :)

    This sounds so yummy, I can’t wait to try it! One question though, could you use molasses in place of all or part of the honey?

    Ohh, yummy! Where do you get your chocolate chips? I can’t find any without soy or chemicals. And I can’t seem to find a recipe for making milk chocolate chips either.

    And I’d love to see the popcorn chicken recipe.

    Hello there, I have left a comment here before, but under a different email. I have had to change my email as someone has stolen my email and contacted all my contacts. They have sent an email that I am in England and lost my wllet and need money. This is not true. I am very much at home in Edmonton, Alberta.

    I am letting you know just in case you ever sent me an email. I don’t think you were on my list, but i wanted to be sure you were notified in case you did get this email.

    My new email is caralee@live.com . Please delete my previous email address.

    Much Appreciated,

    Charmayne Khan

  11. Lisa says:

    You just can’t go wrong with chocolate and peanut butter! This looks so good.

    I’m also voting for popcorn chicken. :) Thank you so much, Laura! I am enjoying this series.

  12. Laura says:

    Lynn…I use Natural Value peanut butter that I order from Azure Standard.

    The chocolate chips I usually use for this fudge is just Hershey’s milk chocolate that I get from Walmart. I need to look into what they have from Azure Standard.

    Michelle…I’m sure you could use molasses for all or part of the honey…I’d say experiment and see what ya get!

  13. Amanda says:

    ooohhh..fudge. Be still my heart. The wonderful thing about this recipe is I have all the ingredients in my cabinets right now!

    And I think either of those recipes, chicken or angeled (we call them stuffed) eggs, sound yummy!

  20. Laura V. says:

    Hmmm, I don’t have any milk chocolate chips, but have dark… Think I’ll be experimenting because it will be another week before I go to the grocery store and I absolutely CANNOT wait that long to try this fudge!!!

    Popcorn chicken, please.

    [Reply]

  21. Nope- I’m not mad that I’m a peanut free mom and that you posted this because I have a whole gallon of honey and a big fat jar of SUNBUTTER! My vote is for popcorn chicken although I love that you call them angeled egss- that is just too cute!

  22. Ezzy says:

    Mmmmmmmmmmmmm, the fudge looks good.

  26. Ruth says:

    Mmmmm, I’m drooling!! This is getting made as soon as I’m done nursing the baby!!! Thanks for sharing.:)

  27. Barbara says:

    I know I’m already outvoted, but I would choose the eggs. My kids won’t eat them, but since they eat every recipe of yours that I make, I thought I’d like to try your recipe!

  28. Lois says:

    I think I’ll get one of the kids to make this fudge. They like “real” peanut butter (the yucky kind with lots of preservatives) instead of my natural brand. However, if the pb comes cleverly disguised as fudge, then they’ll eat it for sure.

    I just tuned in to your blog today, as a link from another friend’s blog who got it from a friend of hers…..These recipes sound good. Whichever one you post next, I’ll try it. When we lived in Nashville, TN back in the 1960’s my mom was asked to bring Dressed eggs to the church potluck. We were from Montana, and she thought it might be some southern specialty, so she asked someone how to make them. When she found out, she said, “Oh, you mean deviled eggs!” Well, that didn’t go over too well in a CHURCH setting.

    Sounds yummy!

  30. Kari says:

    Maybe I should make this kind next Christmas instead of the 5 pound wonder recipe that is still on my hips. (I’d eat it all again though; I think it was worth it. But now I must stop thinking about it or I will be sorely tempted to make some again. Do you think fudge should be an Easter tradition as well as a Christmas tradition?!)

  31. This is sitting in my fridge as I type. Thanks for the recipe.

    I’m a new reader.

  33. Serenity Summers says:

    This fudge looks amazing and I NEED chocoalte in a HUGE way right now! I may have eaten some chololate chips straight out of the bag today while my kids weren’t looking! One of those days when only chocolate can soothe the soul!!! LOL!

    PS: Bring the popcorn chicken!!!

  34. Tereza says:

    That looks really yummy and can’t get anymore simple than that!! Thanks:)

  35. Danielle says:

    Popcorn chicken!

    We call them angeled eggs too!!! I cringe when people call them deviled eggs lol.

  36. Mommaofmany says:

    I’m a new reader, visiting from Tammy’s blog. This looks like a fantastic recipe. I have eight little Lambies and one handsome Honey! We eat dessert only on Saturdays, so this will get a doubling and a try this week.

    I look forward to seeing more simple and healthy recipes!

  37. Sharmista says:

    I finally got around to making this! Oh SO yummy!! The best part is, my daughter can eat it! She is gluten-free & dairy-free so fudge is a real treat for her. Thanks for the great recipe!

  38. Julia says:

    I just made this. I was excited to see that it did not call for butter, since my daughter was just diagnosed with a soy and dairy allergy. It was my first time using non-dairy chocolate chips and all I could find was semi sweet. It turned out great and lasted about a day, with our family of six, only because it was so rich that we had to eat little bits at a time. Thanks so much!

    Wow! I saw this recipe about a month ago, but didn’t get to try it until today (I was too busy making mudballs!). It is so delicious, I need to put it away so it lasts until the kids get up from their naps! :-) Thanks for all the blogging, Laura. I thoroughly enjoy it and have learned a lot!

    A yummy delight! We used crunchy peanut butter. We will probably try adding rolled oats sometime…won’t be fudge but might be good.

  43. Mangerati says:

    Popcorn chicken would be a welcome recipe.

    [Reply]

  44. CherylH says:

    This sounds delicious and another great way to get my granddaughter to eat peanut butter. But I’ll probably use Agave syrup. Similar consistency, so should work well. Thanks for the great recipes! It’s so great to stumble upon a site where health is as much a focus as pleasure (and pleasure, obviously, as much a focus as health!). Yum!

    [Reply]

  45. I just made these – they were so quick to make! It’s in the fridge now setting up. Can’t wait to try them! Thanks :-)

  46. Marianne YC says:

    I was wondering, could I put 1/2 more sup of peanut butter to replace the chocolatee chips. If not what could I replace the chocolate chipes with?

    [Reply]

    Laura Reply:

    I would imagine that it would work with more pb and no choc chips, but I don’t know. It sure won’t taste yucky, so it’s worth a try!
