Introduction

Tiger Butter Fudge is a creamy, irresistible treat that combines rich peanut butter with smooth white and milk chocolate. This no-bake fudge is perfect for snacking or gifting, offering a beautiful swirl design and a luscious, melt-in-your-mouth texture.

The image shows several pieces of creamy beige fudge with dark brown chocolate swirled on top, stacked in a small pile on white parchment paper. Each piece is thick and square, with a smooth texture and some small air pockets visible. The top layer has a marbled swirl effect in dark brown over the beige base. In the background, there is a white bowl filled with dark brown chocolate chips on a white marbled surface. The whole scene is bright with soft lighting and a clean, simple look.

Ingredients

4 cups white baking chips (Nestle Toll House recommended)
¾ cup creamy peanut butter (Jif recommended)
¾ cup milk chocolate chips (Nestle Toll House recommended)
1½ teaspoons vegetable oil

Instructions

Step 1: Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving a slight overhang to lift the fudge out easily. You can use small binder clips to secure the parchment so it stays in place and doesn’t fold over the fudge.
Step 2: Place the white baking chips in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on full power for 1 minute, stir well, then continue microwaving in 30-second intervals until chips are fully melted and smooth.
Step 3: In a small microwave-safe bowl, heat the peanut butter at full power for 30 seconds. Stir well, then add it to the melted white chocolate. Mix thoroughly until combined.
Step 4: Pour the white chocolate and peanut butter mixture into the prepared pan. Tilt the pan as needed to spread the mixture evenly.
Step 5: In another small microwave-safe bowl, combine the milk chocolate chips and vegetable oil. Microwave on full power for 30 seconds, stir, and microwave an additional 15 seconds if needed until smooth. If too thick, stir in 1 teaspoon more vegetable oil.
Step 6: Drizzle the melted milk chocolate over the white chocolate layer in zigzag lines.
Step 7: Use a knife to swirl the milk chocolate into the white chocolate by dragging the tip around the pan gently to create a marbled pattern. Cover with aluminum foil and chill in the refrigerator for 45 minutes.
Step 8: When ready to serve, lift the fudge out using the parchment overhang.
Step 9: Place the fudge on a cutting board and cut into a 6×6 grid to make 36 squares. Keep refrigerated until serving.

Tips & Variations

Using binder clips to hold parchment paper in place helps prevent it from folding over the fudge during pouring.
For a nut-free version, substitute peanut butter with sunflower seed butter or any nut-free spread.
Adjust the swirl design by experimenting with different swirling techniques for unique patterns every time.
Let the fudge sit at room temperature for a few minutes before cutting to make slicing easier.

Storage

Store the fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. To serve, let it sit at room temperature for 10–15 minutes for a softer texture, or enjoy it chilled for a firmer bite.

How to Serve

The image shows a white square dish filled with multiple square pieces of layered fudge. Each fudge piece has two layers: a bottom beige layer with a smooth texture and a top layer with a marbled swirl pattern of light brown and dark brown shades. The fudge squares are stacked irregularly inside the dish, some leaning against one another. Behind the dish, there are blurred bowls containing chocolate chips and peanut butter. The whole scene is set on a white marbled surface. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use other types of chocolate chips?

Yes, you can substitute white and milk chocolate chips with different varieties like semi-sweet or dark chocolate, but it will alter the flavor and appearance.

Is it necessary to use parchment paper?

Using parchment paper is highly recommended as it makes lifting the fudge out of the pan much easier and prevents sticking.
