Marble Chocolate & Peanut Butter Fudge

Here's another recipe for all you "raw" food fanatics. It involves no cooking, the fudge simply sets in the fridge or freezer overnight. When that sweet, sugar craving hits this is a FAR healthier option than the real deal. It contains no sugar, no gluten & no wheat. The recipe does contain fat in the form of coconut oil, but never fear as this is considered to be your healthy fat! It has loads of benefits which you can go and read up on here:

Remember that with fats (even though good) they do still need to be consumed in moderation :)

¼ Cup Raw Honey
1 ½ Cup Almond flour (or just plain raw Nuts; I recommend almond/hazelnuts)

Pinch of salt
1 Cup shredded coconut

For stronger chocolate flavour:

1 Tbsp coconut oil

 2 Tbsp Raw honey

Peanut Butter Fudge:
1 ½ Cup Almond flour  (or just plain raw Nuts; I recommend almond/hazelnuts)
¼ Cup Raw Honey
1 tsp Vanilla extract
2 Tbsp Coconut oil
½ Cup natural peanut butter (or any nut butter from Dischem or your local health store)
Pinch of salt
1 Cup shredded coconut

Set aside

Peanut Butter Fudge:
Process the Almond Flour (or nuts), coconut and salt.
Add Peanut Butter, Honey, coconut oil, vanilla extract & blend until all combined.

For stronger chocolate Flavour:
Melt coconut oil in a small pot over a bigger pot of boiling water
Once melted take off heat and mix in honey & Cacao powder
Set aside

Rip Chocolate & peanut butter dough into 4 large chunks (you should have 8 in total).

Create the fudge marble effect by combining the different pieces together and knead until you see marble effect.

Shape into a flat rectangle shape baking tray

To make stronger chocolate flavour allow the extra chocolate mixture to sit for a bit & thicken (careful that it does not solidify). Then combine it in between the Chocolate and Peanut Butter Doughs.

Chill in the fridge for 3 hours or leave overnight. You can also set in the freezer.

Cut into squares and enjoy! J
