Just Because I Needed Some Chocolate

After all of the Thanksgiving Pies, I wanted chocolate. I needed it bad and didn't want to go to the store, so I had to use just what was on hand. Looking on my own Desserts and Baking website, I found this old recipe for Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge. Not only is this an extremely easy fudge to make, but it's not overly sweet. The most important part was that just by licking the spoon, my chocolate needs were satisfied. I put the fudge in a container and stored it in the fridge for any upcoming urgent cravings.
