Sieve the icing sugar into a bowl.

Pour the peanut butter mixture over the sugar and mix until smooth.

Put around 1/5 of the mixture to one side. Tip the rest into a flat, buttered tin (approx. 20x20 cm) and smooth flat.

Cover and chill in the refrigerator for around 2 hours until set.

Scatter over the peanuts, cover and put to chill.

Turn the fudge out of the tin and cut into cubes.

Place one piece of chocolate fudge on each peanut butter fudge square.
