Cup of Yum
Notes
- The recipe makes 16 small fudge bites. One serving is two pieces.
- You do need both the ⅓c almond butter and the tablespoon.
- To eat the protein fudge, let it sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes so that it’s soft.
- Make sure to heat the ingredients on low and be patient. Otherwise, the peanut butter may burn and it will make the mixture chunky.
- You can pour the protein fudge recipe into a baking loaf lined with parchment paper or mini silicone molds. The nutrition is calculated based on molds and not a parchment paper-lined pan.
- Whisk in the collagen with a fork really quickly and while everything is warm. This way it doesn’t have a chance to clump.
- The protein fudge will stay solid for about 45 minutes at room temperature.
