As well as being no-bake, these delicious fudge squares are made with minimal ingredients that are all natural and all good for you.
Free from dairy, grain and refined sugar, they’re the perfect I-want-a-treat-but-I-don’t-want-to-have-a-bad-treat treat.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup pitted dates
- ½ cup almonds
- ½ cup walnuts
- ¼ cup + ¼ cup raw cacao powder
- 2 ripe bananas
- 4 tbsp almond butter
- 4 tbsp honey
Instructions:
- Put dates in a bowl with warm water. Allow to soak for 30 minutes, then drain.
- Mix together the dates, almonds, walnuts and ¼ cup cacao powder, then blend well.
- Spread mixture in a 9×5 baking pan until evenly distributed, and press down gently with a spoon.
- Mix together the bananas, almond butter, honey and ¼ cup cacao powder, then blend well.
- Spread mixture over bottom layer.
- Place in freezer for 30 minutes.
- Cut into 16 squares.
Make sure you re-freeze any squares that haven’t eaten (yeah, right) as they have a tendency to melt if left at room temperature for too long. Don’t worry, they’ll soften up again after about a minute out of the freezer.
