Ingredients
40 full-size Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, divided
3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
4 tablespoons heavy cream
14 oz sweetened condensed milk
Instructions
Prepare the Pan:
Line a 9×9-inch baking pan with foil and lightly spray with nonstick spray.
Layer Reese’s:
Line the bottom of the pan with 16 peanut butter cups (4 rows of 4). Cut 4 more in half and place along the edges to cover the entire base.
Chop Remaining Cups:
Slice or crumble the remaining 20 peanut butter cups and set aside.
Make Fudge Base:
In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine chocolate chips, heavy cream, and sweetened condensed milk. Heat on low, stirring constantly until fully melted and smooth.
Spread and Top:
Pour chocolate mixture over the layered peanut butter cups. Top with chopped Reese’s, pressing them gently into the surface.
Cool and Set:
Let fudge cool at room temperature for 30 minutes, then cover and refrigerate for another 30 minutes until fully set.
Slice and Serve:
Lift fudge from pan, slice into 25 squares, and serve. Store chilled.
Notes
Use sweetened condensed milk, not evaporated milk — they are not interchangeable.
Chill the peanut butter cups before slicing for cleaner cuts.
Score the top before chilling completely to make slicing easier.
For clean slices, dip a sharp knife in hot water, dry it, and slice while the blade is still warm.
