My infrequent trips home require a lot of prep by my mom and I’m as excited to see her as I am to eat. We typically go out for meals instead of dining on homemade cuisine, but my mom’s dessert game is on point. Here are my favorites that are always awaiting my arrival.
Chocolate & peanut butter chip fudge
Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge:
- 2 Cups Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
- 1 Can (14 oz) Sweetened Condensed Milk
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- A Dash of Salt
- 1 Cup of Reese’s Peanut Butter Chips
The foil makes cleanup & cutting so much easier
- Remove from heat once smooth and add peanut butter chips while stirring to distribute evenly.
- Once mixed but before chips start to melt, spread mixture into foil-lined pan and refrigerate for two hours.
- Lift foil from pan and dice to desired size of fudge pieces.
I let my mom handle the sharp objects
Chow Mein Crunchies:
- ½ Cup Creamy Peanut Butter
- 1 Package (6 oz) Butterscotch Morsels
- 1 Can (3 oz) Chow Mein Noodles
Spoonfuls of crunchies
- Combine peanut butter and butterscotch morsels in a double boiler over low heat and stir until melted.
- Mix in Chow Mein Noodles. Once noodles are coated, drop by teaspoon on waxed paper and chill in the fridge until hard.
Ready for the fridge!
