..Below is my
famous healthy
chocolate-peanut-butter fudge recipe that
takes only 5 minutes to make and is really simple. The
great thing is that I use no added sugars, no
artificial
sweeteners, and all healthy fat sources. You'll see why
below.
My healthy chocolate-peanut-butter fudge recipe (peanut
butter can be omitted if you prefer plain chocolate):
Extra dark chocolate bar (3-4 oz bar works well -- look
for at least 70% cocoa content, between 70-85% -- this
minimizes the sugar content)
4 or 5 Tbsp of your favourite
organic nut butter (almond
butter, cashew butter, peanut butter all work well)
2/3 to 3/4 cup of organic coconut milk (great source of
healthy saturated fats from medium chain triglycerides -
MCTs)
2 tbsp rice bran (additional healthy fiber source)
2 tbsp oat bran (more healthy fiber including soluble
fiber)
1/2 cup raw pecans, almonds, or walnuts (yes, more
healthy fats, antioxidants, and tons of
vitamins/minerals)
1/2 cup dried cranberries or raisins (optional based on
your tastes)
1 tsp vanilla extract
a little stevia to lightly sweeten (stevia is a natural
non-caloric sweetener as opposed to
harmful artificial sweeteners)
Start with the coconut milk, nut butter, and chocolate
bar in a medium saucepan and put it on the lowest heat
possible. Continuously stir as the chocolate, coconut
milk, and nut butter melts together. Once these melt
together add in all of the other ingredients and stir
together very well.
Once everything is mixed well together, spread the
mixture onto some waxed paper laid out in a baking dish
and throw it in the fridge to solidify.
Now you have some of the healthiest
chocolate fudge ever
known to man!
Keep in mind that you still need to keep your serving
portions small because this is still a calorie-dense
snack even though it is super-healthy. The good news is
that it is lower in sugar and calories than typical
fudge and has loads more nutrition than any typical
fudge.
