Easiest Peanut Butter Fudge Ever

This recipe is by far one of the easiest, if not the easiest, recipe you will ever find for just about any type of dessert. There is also a recipe that is very similar to this that is delicious where you take a plastic can of vanilla frosting and melt it down with a jar of peanut butter but I really like the final flavors and texture of using white almond bark instead. If you really want to “turn up the volume” on this recipe, sprinkle some chocolate chips over the top. I really find this recipe to be pretty versatile.  

I think that white almond bark is the best in this recipe, like I said above but you can use chocolate almond bark if you want for that chocolate and peanut butter vibe. It is just as delicious and just as easy. When making this, be sure to stay with the almond bark as you melt it. There is no coming back from burnt almond bark and that goes for the white and the chocolate. Try this recipe and as always, let me know what you think. Enjoy!
