COCONUT OIL PEANUT BUTTER FUDGE
I’ve had a lot on the go as of late. My mind is bursting with things I need to get done and deadlines I have to keep my eye on.
Whew!
When life gets hectic and I’m running on less sleep than usual I tend to get a tad lazy in the eating department. Toast with jam masquerades a meal and bowls of cereal equals lunch. Yikes. Not ideal to say the least.
One thing for sure, my healthy snack game is ON POINT!
Enter this cold customer.
Oh, this fudge is something.
Just imagine the most indulgent, creamy, chocolaty, peanut buttery, velvety treat that just melt in your mouth. I’ve been slicing a piece into four squares and savoring every bite.
A little elegant marbling brings this uber-easy no bake treat to new heights.
It looks so fancy!
Just drizzling some melted dark chocolate and dragging a toothpick through it creates that marbled effect.
Fun. 🙂
Thankfully indulgences like this one are full of healthy fats that don’t actually make you fat! Amen to that.

This fudge is having a party in my mouth! But I gave a question: what could I stuff into it to bulk it up? It’s sweet enough with one tablespoon of maple but I would sort of like there to be MORE of it. Any ideas?
