Ingredients

  • ½ cup (154g) sweetened condensed milk
  • ½ cup (157g) creamy peanut butter (shelf-stable, no stir only)
  • 5 tablespoons water (may need up to ½ cup)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Place sweetened condensed milk and peanut butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir until smooth. Add water and stir until it is incorporated.
  • If the sauce doesn't seem to want to incorporate or seems too thick (if you've used regular, not fat free SCM) add another tablespoon of water at a time until it's a pourable sauce (approximately liquid hot fudge in consistency).
  • Remove from heat then stir in the vanilla.
  • Transfer sauce to a jar to cool. It will thicken as it cools. To make it pourable, just heat it in the microwave for a few seconds, then stir and drizzle or pour over your favorite ice cream. Store covered at room temperature.
