Notes
- Use softened cream cheese and butter for easier mixing and a smooth texture.
- Natural peanut butter without added sugars or oils is best to keep it low-carb.

- Store fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- For firmer fudge, freeze for 30 minutes before serving.
