FAQs
Can I use natural peanut butter instead of regular peanut butter?
Natural peanut butter can be used, but it may change the texture and flavor slightly. It often contains less sugar and may make the fudge less sweet.
Do I have to use vanilla frosting, or can I make it from scratch?
You can use homemade frosting if you prefer, but store-bought vanilla frosting makes this recipe especially quick and easy.
