Peanut Butter and Dark Chocolate Fudge

This recipe comes from “Cooking Light”; another quick and easy neighbor gift and who doesn’t love fudge?

1 (14 oz) can fat free sweetened condensed milk, divided

3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips

2 tablespoons unsweetened dark cocoa powder (I only had regular cocoa so used that)

1/4 teaspoon coffee granules (I left these out this time)

1 teaspoon vanilla, divided

3/4 cup peanut butter chips

1 tablespoon peanut butter

1/4 cup salted, dry roasted peanuts, coarsely chopped (didn’t have any)

1  Line an 8″ square baking dish with wax paper.  Place 9 tablespoons (or 1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon) milk in bowl.  Add chocolate chips, cocoa and coffee.  Microwave on high for 1 minute or until melted.  Stir in 1/2 teaspoon vanilla.  Spread carefully into prepared pan.

2  Combine the remaining milk, peanut butter chips and peanut butter in another bowl.  Microwave on high for 1 minute or until melted.  Stir in remaining 1/2 teaspoon vanilla.  Spread carefully and evenly over chocolate layer, and sprinkle with peanuts.  Cover and chill 2 hours.  Cut into 25 squares.
