This easy and delicious fudge recipe calls for protein-rich almond butter and antioxidant-rich raw chocolate powder, making it a decadent treat that is much healthier than conventional store-bought fudge.

Ingredients

2 cups almond butter

1/4 cup NOW Real Food® Organic Cocoa Powder*

1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons raw organic honey

1 heaping tablespoon melted (optional) NOW Real Food® Coconut Oil*

2 teaspoons NOW Real Food® Vanilla Extract*

1 teaspoon coarse sea salt

1. Combine all ingredients in a large bowl. Mix well.
2. Spoon mixture into a pan and flatten with the back of a spoon.
3. Place in the freezer for about an hour; then, take out and cut into bite-size squares. Keep these covered and stored in the freezer.

Note: These must be kept in the freezer until just prior to serving - otherwise they will become the consistency they were before freezing.

Variations: You can substitute dark cocoa for part or all of the cocoa. Also, try adding favorite nuts such as whole or chopped pecans or walnuts.
