Peanut Butter (coconut oil) Fudge
Here's a variation of our Good-For-You Coconut Oil Fudge. The husband & children like it better, probably since it tastes a little less rich and a lot more like a Reese's Cup.
I like to stock our freezer with both recipes, though. One for me & one for them, right? It's only fair.
Peanut Butter (coconut oil) Fudge
Ingredients:
1/2 cup coconut oil
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1/2 cup peanut butter (we like the "natural" one- or two-ingredient variety)
1/4 cup honey, more or less to taste
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
pinch of salt (if your peanut butter contains salt, omit this)
Directions:
1. Line a loaf pan with plastic wrap.
2. Melt the coconut oil in a glass measuring cup.
3. Add remaining ingredients to the oil & whisk till smooth.
4. Dip in your clean finger, & taste to make sure it's sweet enough; if not, add more honey.
5. Pour into the lined loaf pan, & freeze until solid.
6. Turn the fudge out out of the pan, cut into bite-sized pieces, & hide them from the rest of your family behind the frozen peas in your freezer.
7. Just kidding. Share with your fam. It's healthy, remember? You've got the less-Reese's-tasting kind for yourself.
Enjoy!
Oops. I forgot to take a pic of the finished product. Maybe next time..
