This 5-minute peanut butter freezer fudge is the treat your Friday night needs

Trine Jensen-Burke

What is Friday night without a little treat?

And we got just the thing for you. Say hello to freezer fudge, possibly the easist and yummiest thing to whip up ever.

This is a recipe for basic peanut butter freezer fudge (or any other nut butter you prefer), but once you get a hang of this one, feel free to get adventures with adding things like chocolate, nuts, dried berries etc.

Ingredients
1/2 cup natural nut butter
2 tablespoons coconut oil, softened or melted
2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Scant 1/4 teaspoon salt

Directions

1. Combine all of your ingredients into a bowl, and stir until well-combined. If you find your fudge is hard to mix, try microwaving the bowl for about 15 seconds – this will make everything smoother.

2. Pour the fudge into a container lined with plastic wrap or parchment paper. We used a standard bread loaf pan, but even plastic tupperware will work.

3. Place the container into the freezer and allow 30-40 minutes for the fudge to set.

4. After the fudge has completely hardened, remove from the freezer and let sit for 5 minutes. Using a sharp knife, carefully cut the fudge into squares. Place the fudge into a baggie or tupperware, and store in the freezer until ready to eat.

Warning: You might feel like eating it all. We did (just don’t tell anyone!)
