4-ingredient Protein Fudge

This has been my GO TO dessert lately. I always have a batch of this in the freezer now. I am such a sweet tooth so I have something for dessert every single night. And because it is high in protein and healthy fats, a piece or 2 is plenty enough to satisfy my sweet tooth after dinner.

I have honestly been making this on repeat, I just cannot get enough of it! It only takes minutes to make and keep it stored in the freezer so you always have a little sweet treat ready to go when you need it.

Ingredients (makes 9 pieces)

  • 1/2 cup cashew butter

  • 2 tbsp rice malt or pure maple syrup

  • 2 tbsp coconut oil

  • 1 serve Happy Way vegan vanilla protein (discount code: HAPPYELISE)

  • Toppings of choice: banana slices, berries, coconut, hemp seeds, nuts, seeds etc.

Method

  1. In a small saucepan, add the cashew butter, syrup and coconut oil. Place over low-medium heat and heat until the coconut oil melts and everything is smooth and combined.

  2. Take off the heat and stir in the protein powder.

  3. Transfer mixture onto a lined tray and spread out to desired thickness.

  4. Top with choice of toppings and place in the freezer to set for minimum 3 hours (overnight is best) before cutting.
