Recipe: Peanut Butter Protein Fudge

Instead of easter eggs this year, I'm going to be making my own fudge. I made it a few months back, and it was so good. The only problem - trying not to eat it all at once!

Makes 10 pieces

Calories/Macros per piece:

45 calories

3.4g fat (2g sat)

1.8g carbs (.4g fibre, 1.4g sugar) 2.3g protein

4.1mg sodium

(These values may change slightly depending on what brands you use)

Ingredients:

• 20g (2.5T) coconut oil, melted
• 15g (1T) liquid honey
• 20g (3T) whey (I used vanilla, because I don't like chocolate whey - but that would be good)
• 10g (1.5T) cocoa (or cacao) powder
• 20g (2T) peanut butter (or any nut butter, I used crunchy PB which means there are little chunks of peanut throughout)
• 10ml / splash milk or water of your choice
• Stevia to sweeten if needed

Instructions:

• Mix all ingredients together, until well combined. Add the milk/water until a good consistency.
• Roll out on a large piece of glad wrap.
• Fold the glad wrap over so it is covered and press down to smooth it out. 
• Put in the freezer until frozen (not sure how long it would take, I put mine in overnight).
• Cut into 10 pieces and store in the freezer.

Notes:

Because of the coconut oil it will melt fairly quickly when in room temperature, so make sure to keep it in the freezer. 

Enjoy!
