This award winning fudge is made in mere minutes and requires only 4 ingredients!
The secret ingredient is Jif Whipped Pumpkin Spice Peanut Butter. It is the perfect creaminess for fudge with the added fall flavor of pumpkin pie spice! I am a big fan of pecans (especially with pumpkin) and I like the added nuttiness and crunch they add to this fudge. You can also lightly toast them before adding.
*If you can’t find the peanut butter, add pumpkin pie spice to creamy whipped peanut butter.

This Pumpkin Spice Peanut Butter is my new favorite fall treat!
The creamy, whipped texture is perfect for fudge.
Mix condensed milk with chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl.
Heat on 50% power for 1 minute. Stir then heat for another minute. Stir again until smooth.
Spread into a parchment paper lined and greased 9X13 baking dish. Or you can use a disposable aluminum pan and spray it with non stick spray.
Now melt the peanut butter. It’s already whipped so it doesn’t need much. I just add the remaining condensed milk (about 1/4 cup) and the peanut butter to a bowl and heat on 50% power for 1 minute. Stir and that’s it!
Spread peanut butter evenly on top of chocolate layer.
Top with chopped pecans.
*Optional you can lightly toast the pecans first.
Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours before cutting.
