Peanut Butter Fudge

I had a lovely spot of baking while we were away. After a busy week, I needed a recipe for a sweet snack that I could "take and bake" away from my own kitchen. This recipe had just a few ingredients and only required a stove and a fridge. The peanut butter flavour is intense and deliciously sweet! I found a vintage plate to serve it on that matched our vintage cottage perfectly.
