Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 ½ cups / 375 grams peanut butter
- 6 tablespoons / 85 grams unsalted butter
- ⅔ cup / 100 grams powdered monk fruit allulose blend
Protein and Flavor Enhancers:
- ¼ cup / 25 grams collagen protein powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Prepare the baking vessel by lining an 8×8 inch (20×20 cm) pan with parchment paper, ensuring slight overhang on all sides for easy removal.
- Create a smooth base by gently melting peanut butter and butter together in a microwave-safe bowl or saucepan, stirring periodically until completely liquefied and uniform in texture.
- Incorporate dry ingredients by thoroughly blending the sweetener and collagen powder into the melted mixture, ensuring no lumps remain. Evaluate the sweetness and make subtle adjustments if necessary.
- Infuse flavor by stirring in vanilla extract, mixing until the entire composition becomes harmoniously combined.
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan, using a spatula to distribute evenly and create a smooth, level surface.
- Place the pan in the freezer for 30-45 minutes, allowing the fudge to solidify completely and develop a firm, slice-able consistency.
- Remove from freezer and lift the parchment paper onto a cutting board. Warm a knife under hot water, quickly dry, and slice into precise squares.
- Store the fudge in an airtight container within the freezer. For optimal texture, allow pieces to rest at room temperature for 2-3 minutes before serving.
Notes
- Select thick, creamy peanut butter without added sugar to ensure the best flavor and smooth consistency. Natural versions need thorough stirring before use.
- Gently heat butter and peanut butter at low temperature, stirring constantly to prevent burning and maintain a silky texture.
- Transform granulated sweetener into fine powder using a blender or food processor to eliminate graininess when mixing ingredients.
- Completely freeze the fudge for 30-45 minutes, allowing it to set firmly and create perfectly clean cutting edges.
- Dip a knife in hot water, quickly dry it, and slice the chilled fudge to achieve professional-looking, precise squares.
