Line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal later. Set it aside.
In a medium-sized saucepan over low heat, combine the sweetened condensed milk, semi-sweet chocolate chips, creamy peanut butter, and unsalted butter.
Stir the mixture constantly until the chocolate chips and butter are fully melted and the mixture is smooth. This should take about 4-5 minutes.
Once smooth, remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and salt until evenly combined.
Pour the chocolate-peanut butter mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly with a spatula.
If desired, sprinkle the chopped peanuts evenly over the top of the fudge for added texture and flavor.
Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2 hours, or until completely set.
Once set, lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Cut it into 16 squares (or desired portion size) using a sharp knife.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
