There is nothing better at the holidays than a really good piece of peanut butter fudge. My mom would always make a peanut butter fudge at the holidays but it was more of a Chocolate Peanut Butter fudge because it was just melted Peanut Butter and creme drops candy.

I loved this fudge and loved how easy it was to make!
