As Critter gets older, she wants to sit at the table and eat dinner with us. This makes preparing dinner difficult. She has so many food allergies. We can’t have anything with dairy products, soy, oats, cashews, or pears on the table. If she sees us eating it, she wants to share. Strangely, one of the few things she is not allergic to is peanut butter. That’s when I decided to adapt a Vegan peanut butter fudge recipe to a chocolate and peanut butter fudge recipe. This is so good no one will believe it is dairy-free, gluten-free, and Vegan. To test my theory, I tried it on unsuspecting family members without telling them it was Vegan. Everyone told me how much they enjoyed the taste. I didn’t inform them of my secret. To be fair, I gave some to a Vegan friend and she liked it too. This one is a crowd pleaser!
Two Layer Chocolate & Peanut Butter Fudge Recipe
Did I mention this fudge has only four ingredients and is no-bake? It has a short prep time too! I spent around ten minutes making the fudge from start to finish. It does need chilling time, so plan ahead. If you have peanut allergies, try this with sunflower butter. It has a different taste, but it is still good! I like to use “milk” chocolate chips in mine, but if you are a fan of dark chocolate or semisweet chocolate, those work as well. If you don’t have any allergies, you can use regular chocolate chips and real butter in the recipe.
Printable Recipe
- 2 cups (16 ounces) Peanut Butter OR Sunflower Butter
- 2 cups (16 ounces) Confectioners Sugar
- 3/4 cup (6 ounces) dairy-free “butter”
- 1 cup (8 ounces) dairy free chocolate chips in your choice of Milk, Dark, or Semi-Sweet
- Melt 1/2 cup of the butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Add peanut butter, butter, and confectioners sugar into a large bowl. Stir until blended. In a 7″ by 9 ” baking dish lined with waxed paper, spread the peanut butter mixture evenly across the bottom of the dish. Set aside.
- In a microwave safe bowl, melt butter and chocolate chips, stirring every 30 seconds until melted. Pour chocolate mixture over peanut butter mixture and spread evenly with a knife. Refrigerate for an hour or until firm.

The chocolate peanut butter fudge looks absolutely lip smacking. Would love to lay my hands on a big slice.
I’ve actually never tried to make fudge myself. I was just talking with someone about this earlier in the evening. Yours looks so good. 🙂
I consider myself a really good baker but peanut butter fudge is one of those things I’ve never done well. But this one I think I will try again. And of course with chocolate – yum.
This dessert looks delicious! My kids would love if I made this!
This is a great dessert for people with different food aversions. Looks easy to makes as well.
This is such a lovely treat! Especially for the kids, it would be nice to make this for them when they come visit. It’s easy to make as well!
Chocolate and peanut butter is just double the goodness. I would love to try this fudge.

Thankfully, no one in my family has a food allergy, but as my son gets older, we have come into contact with some other kids he hangs out with have some allergies. This is a great recipe we will certainly have to try. I do like trying vegan recipes from time to time, and it looks delicious.
This looks really delicious. I’m always convincing myself I don’t like too much peanut butter, but I want some of this.
