My friend Liz (From That Skinny Chick Can Bake) and I have this awesome monthly feature called Two Sweetie Pies. Each month, we choose a recipe from the other’s blog and feature it. We do not tell each other which recipe we are working on until reveal day which is always so exciting!
This month is extra special because it’s one of my favorite recipes from Liz and then it is pushed over the top with the addition of peanut butter cups! A few months ago I hit the Fudge Lottery when I made Liz’s Chocolate Peanut Butter Double Decker Fudge. I love and adore peanut butter fudge so this month I skipped the chocolate part, made the peanut butter part thicker and added mini peanut butter cups. SCORE! Liz, you made my fudge dreams come true!!!!
Goodbye candy store, hello homemade!!!

Looks yummy! If I were to double the recipe what size pan would you put it in? That way I can use up all the marshmallow cream! 🙂
