This is my ALL TIME FAVORITE filling, it's very popular with the people I give fudge to.
Love love love
It tastes just like a Peanut Butter Cup. And how can you go wrong with chocolate and peanut butter, anyway??
YUM
To prepare the peanut butter filling:
1) Take equal parts of peanut butter and confectioner's (powdered) sugar (1 cup of each is about enough for a full pan of fudge); stir until fully combined (don't add in all of the sugar at once, as you may not need all of it). You should have a ball of peanut butter that is like a soft cookie dough - firm enough to be flattened out and handled, but not too firm. Think of the Reeses filling!
2) Press the peanut butter mixture into the bottom of the pan that will be used for the fudge. Let it chill like that until you start making the fudge, and then remove it (this is easiest if you line the pan with foil or wax paper first).
3) Make the fudge.
4) Pour half of the fudge mixture into the pan, then quickly top with the pb mixture... if the sheet of pb breaks or anything, don't fret - just put the pieces on however you can, it doesn't really matter. Cover with the second half of the fudge mixture, and smooth out the top. Chill, cut, and wrap as described in the fudge recipe.
Do the pouring quickly! The fudge begins to set after you stir in the chocolate.
This is so good. Really. Mmmmmmmm.
I'll be back (of course) with more filled fudges, like the S'mores Fudge I made recently!

You love putting things between fudge? I love EATING the things between fudge. especially if the thing is peanut butter. Man, I would eat my hands if there was peanut butter sandwiched in between them. Mmm peanut butter hands.
