Ingredients

  • 3 tbs coconut oil
  • ¼ cup almond butter or any nut butter
  • ¼ cup vegan protein powder chocolate or vanilla
  • ½ tbs vegan protein powder
  • 1.5 tbs cacao powder
  • 3.5 tbs maple syrup
  • 1.5 teaspoon vanilla stevia optional
  • mini chocolate chips for topping optional

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a small pot, melt the coconut oil, maple syrup, and nut butter on low.
  2. Remove from heat and whisk in the remaining ingredients using a whisk and not a fork until smooth.
  3. Pour into a silicone baking loaf and top with chocolate chips or sea salt (if using).
  4. Pop in the freezer for one to two hours to set.

Notes

  • When heating the chocolate protein fudge, keep it on low and remove it when the coconut oil is just melted. Otherwise, the nut butter can burn which will ruin the fudge.
  • You do need both the ¼ cup and ½ tablespoon of protein powder for the next texture.
  • When you whisk in the protein powder you need to move quickly so that it mixes smoothly.
  • The stevia is optional and depends on the taste of your protein powder. With a sweeter protein powder, it's not needed.
  • You can either portion the fudge into a parchment paper prepared loaf pan and slice it into squares when ready. Or, you can pour into individual silicone molds.
  • You can use cocoa powder in place of cacao powder if that's what you have. Just know you're losing some nutrient benefits.
