- Ready In:
- 30mins
- Ingredients:
- 6
- Yields:
-
16 1x1 inch squares
- Serves:
- 16
ingredients
- 4 ounces unsweetened baking chocolate
- 1 cup natural-style peanut butter
- 3⁄4 cup xylitol sugar substitute
- 1 tablespoon artificial sweetener
- 1⁄2 cup half-and-half cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
directions
- Melt the baking chocolate in a double boiler over medium heat.
- Add xylitol and half & half, and stir to blend well.
- Heat the mixture, stirring occasionally, until dissolved, smooth, and very hot (no need to boil).
- Remove from heat and stir in peanut butter and vanilla.
- Press mixture into a flat container that gives the desired height for your fudge. I use a fairly small container so that when I slice the fudge, pieces will be square.
- Chill until firm, then cut into 16 pieces. Store in refrigerator.

<p>I've been baking since I was six years old...but I rarely go beyond the basics. I love recipes that are easy, predictable, and delicious! When I'm tired or a bit down, baking relaxes me and cheers me up. Since I'm maintaining a substantial weight loss (or trying to, anyway!), I can't put too many temptations before myself, so I try to do it when there are people around to enjoy the results. I love baking people happy!</p>
