Almond Fudge-The Perfect Christmas Snack

 The Christmas Season is officially upon us.  With this special time spent with family comes the American tradition of overeating and overindulgence.  Here is a recipe for a healthy alternative to Christmas cookies and snacks.  Enjoy, and Merry Christmas from Valley Chiropractic Associates.



Almond Fudge
2 cups almond butter
¼ cup raw cocoa powder, sifted to remove any lumps
½ cup + 2 tablespoons raw liquid honey
1 heaping Tbsp coconut oil, melted
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp coarse sea salt
Combine all ingredients in a large bowl. Mix until well incorporated. Spoon mixture
into a pan and flatten with the back of a spoon. Place in the freezer for an hour or
so, then take it out to cut into bite-size squares or rectangles. Transfer the pieces
onto a plate. Keep these covered and stored in the freezer.
***Must be kept in freezer, otherwise will become soft and mushy, to the consistency
they were at before freezing. So if you take them out to eat, eat them quickly! Also
keep this in mind when cutting the fudge; work quickly.
