I may have mentioned this at least 100 times but I have a huge chocolate addiction.

Eating paleo means you struggle to buy ready made paleo treats (unless you pay a fortune and find somewhere that stocks them). So this inevitably means you will find yourself making them at home, which is fine but because I now have these recipes dialed and they are so easy to make I do have to start limiting my consumption, all in moderation as they say.

Paleo Fudge has got to be the #1 treat in our house, it’s a taste sensation I tell you!

I use this recipe I found on Fast Paleo: http://fastpaleo.com/paleo-fudge/ its fail proof.

Ingredients:

• 3/4 cup almond butter
• 1/2 cup coconut oil
• 1/4 cup honey (use less if you don’t want it too sweet)
• 1/2 cup cocoa powder
• 1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
• 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla
• 1/2 cup Enjoy Life chocolate chips (or other paleo chocolate)

Directions:

1. Line a 9×9 baking pan with parchment or wax paper
2. In a microwave safe bowl combine almond butter, coconut oil, and honey – heat for one minute (I do it in a pan over the stove on a very low heat)
3. Then in a large bowl add cocoa powder, melted ingredients and vanilla and mix until smooth
4. Add in the coconut and make sure all coconut is covered
5. Sprinkle in the chocolate chips and give it a few stirs
6. Pour mixture on top of the parchment paper and let sit in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours
7. Cut into small pieces (pizza cutter is my weapon of choice) and ENJOY!

note: these must remain refrigerated. they will melt if they get too warm.
