Peanut Butter Fudge




Found this on Pinterest and the whole thing went from conception to being made, cleaned up and consumed in under an hour- and it was all staples that we had on hand.  Definitely a winner and the piece that did survive the night tasted even better on day two.  And, it does have some semi-healthy redeeming qualities too! :-)

Peanut Butter Fudge
1 C. peanut butter, natural is healthiest but creamy or crunchy, whatever you have
¼ C. coconut oil, melted
2 Tbsp. honey
¼ tsp. salt (sea salt)
½ tsp. vanilla (optional)
¼ C. powdered sugar, optional*

Combine the melted oil and peanut butter and oil, then add honey, salt and vanilla and stir until blended.  Add in the powdered sugar if you want to.  Pour into a lightly greased 5x7 pan (I used a bread pan) and freeze until set, 20-30 minutes.  Cut into squares and enjoy!

This only made a tiny amount.  I wouldn't make more unless it was for a party because this is so delicious and it is really easy to just eat the whole thing with a fork.  At least for me, it would be.


* You only need to add powdered sugar if you plan to keep it out of the freezer for more than five minutes.  I did add the sugar and thought the taste and texture was great- but I suppose if you wanted to keep it even more minimal, you could skip it.
