📝 Preparation Steps
1
Line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on all sides. Grease the paper with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.

In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, milk, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture registers 230°F on a candy thermometer, 2 to 2 1/⏱️ 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and quickly stir in the peanut butter and vanilla until smooth.
3
Immediately pour the peanut butter mixture into the prepared pan and spread it into an even layer. Let the fudge cool completely at room temperature until it is set, about ⏱️ 2 hours.
4
Using the parchment paper as handles, lift to remove the fudge from the pan. Cut the fudge into 16 squares.
5
Place the chocolate chips in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is almost smooth with some unmelted bits remaining. Stir until the residual heat fully melts the chocolate and the mixture is smooth (microwave an additional ⏱️ 15 seconds, if needed). Drizzle the fudge with the melted chocolate and sprinkle with the peanuts. Let stand until the chocolate is hardened, about ⏱️ 20 minutes.
