Peanut Butter Fudge Recipe


If you haven't heard of this book or seen it already I totally recommend it. Low calorie recipes for all sorts of yummy food that we usually get rid of when we are watching our calories. I've been trying recipes from it and I have a new favorite that I had to share. For that sweet tooth it's a PB Fudge recipe that's super easy.

Ingredients:
Betty Crocker 18.3 oz box (Fudge Brownie mix, but you could probably use your favorite)
2 cups canned pumpkin
2 tbsp room temperature Peanut Butter

Mix brownie mix and pumpkin in bowl. Grease pan (9' by 9' is best) and put in mixture. Then mix the PB on top with a knife. Heat at 350 for 35 minutes (it looks like you should keep cooking it but take it out) and then cool in fridge for 2 hours.

This is super yummy and low calories too! I hope you try it and enjoy.

It's been asked if you taste the pumpkin in it? I notice the pumpkin most in the texture not so much the taste. The first bite tastes a little different than normal fudge, but after that I didn't really notice. Everyone will have to tell me what you think when you try it!
