Healthy Fudge For One

A quick, healthy and delicious fudge, perfect for one person. The reason for this single serving fudge recipe is because I know it can be difficult to have self-control when it comes to sweets.

Which is why this single-serving of raw fudge can come in handy when your sweet-tooth hits. You simply cannot over indulge when there is only one small serving.  😊

Fudge is an old school dessert that can best be described as a sugar candy that has loads and loads of sugar in the form of heavily sweetened condensed milk, butter, and sugar as its main components.

This is a ‘healthified’ recipe with all that bad stuff gone and only good stuff put back in so you can feel good about eating it or making it for someone in your family as a wee treat or gift.

The best part about fudge is that the flavor possibilities are endless! You can add anything and everything in a fudge. You could add some chopped nuts or some dried fruit or even seeds like hemp seeds for extra protein.

I whip up this fudge pretty often for myself, because it’s quick and easy, and satisfies my chocolate cravings instantly! It’s great for a quick snack or even a dessert when after a meal you still are yearning for a ‘lil somethin’.

The good ingredients in this recipe add to your health rather than take away from it like the old fashioned sugar laden fudge. Cashew butter is loaded with fiber and minerals, including calcium, potassium and magnesium, which can help balance blood sugar and lower cholesterol.

Paired with antioxidant-rich cocoa powder, heart-healthy coconut oil and a splash of mineral-rich honey, this fudge is a guilt-free indulgence! One little square makes me happy in an instant. It’s soft and chewy and it melts in your mouth so beautiful.

I top the fudge with a sprinkle of sea salt for a perfect sweet salty combination.

Whip up your own tiny batch of this super healthy fudge in just a few minutes, freeze to harden, and in the freezer it goes so it is ready at a moment's notice.

Whether it's for a pre- or post-workout energy boost, or to satisfy that 3 o'clock snack craving, this fudge is the golden ticket.

I hope you will enjoy it as often as I do.
