Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 1 hour
Total Time: 1 hour 5 minutes
Yield: 20 pieces

Ingredients:

  • 8 oz cream cheese
  • 3 oz heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup natural peanut butter
  • 1 oz unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 4 tbsp Splenda or other sugar substitute

Instructions:

  1. Prepare Ingredients:

    • Start by gathering your ingredients: cream cheese, heavy cream, peanut butter, cocoa powder, and sugar substitute.
  2. Microwave and Melt:

    • In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the cream cheese and peanut butter. Microwave for 1-2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds until melted and smooth.
  3. Incorporate Cocoa Powder:

    • Stir in the unsweetened cocoa powder until fully incorporated and the mixture is creamy and smooth.
  4. Mix in Heavy Cream and Sweetener:

    • Transfer the melted mixture into a larger mixing bowl. Whisk in the heavy cream and Splenda (or your preferred sugar substitute) until well combined.
  5. Freeze and Chill:

    • Line a baking dish or tray with wax paper. Spread the fudge mixture evenly onto the wax paper. Cover with another sheet of wax paper to prevent sticking.
    • Place the tray in the freezer until the fudge is firm, about 1 hour.
  6. Slice and Serve:

    • Once the fudge is fully set, remove it from the freezer and cut it into small squares or rectangles.
    • Store the fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator to keep it chilled until ready to serve.
