Easy No-Sugar-Added Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge

1. Break up the chocolate into pieces and melt it using a double boiler or the microwave.

2. Once the chocolate is melted, mix in the rest of the ingredients.

3. Pack or spread the chocolate mixture into a loaf pan. Cool to room temperature, or you can put it in the refrigerator. Cut into 36 pieces and serve.

Variations and Substitutions

If you opt for a higher-quality chocolate such as Ghirardelli over a less expensive variety such as Hershey's, try using less—6 ounces should be enough—to avoid having the fudge turning out too hard.

If you're not worried about adding a bit of sugar, swap the stevia for an equal amount of powdered sugar or natural sweeteners such as honey or agave syrup.

Cooking and Serving Tips

• You can melt the chocolate in a double boiler on the stove or in a bowl in the microwave. If using the microwave, heat in short time increments and stir in between to avoid overheating.
• To make a double boiler at home, place chocolate in a metal bowl and then place bowl with chocolate over a pot of boiling water. The bowl should be large enough so that it sits on top of the pot of boiling water but does not have contact with the boiling water. The hot steam gently heats up the bowl with chocolate, melting it without burning it.
