Fun Food for a Friday!!

Cookie Dough Fudge You Could Eat for Breakfast

Ingredients:

1/2 cup almond butter* 1/2 cup coconut oil (room temp–solid but still scoopable) – I like to buy coconut products here 1/2 cup collagen hydrolysate (gelatin that doesn’t gel when it gets wet — buy it here) 1/4 tsp vanilla extract 1-2 Tbsp maple syrup (I use grade B) a few pinches of himalayan crystal salt (or good quality sea salt) 1 cup mini chocolate chips (I use this kind–they don’t have weird junk in them like soy lecithin)

Instructions:

In food processor, mix almond butter and gelatin. It will be dry and crumbly.

Add coconut oil, vanilla, and maple syrup. Mix until well combined. Pour into a mixing bowl, and stir in chips. You can spread this in a pan and refrigerate for fudge, or use the batter for fillings, sandwich cookies, ice cream mix-in, etc! It’s soft and like cookie dough if you don’t refrigerate it, and if you do it gets firm (due to the coconut oil) and has a fudge texture.
