Unsweetened Protein Fudge

This protein fudge is free of both nuts and lactose. Normal fudge tends to use evaporated or condensed milk, and most healthy fudges use peanut or almond butter. I've used nut free homemade sunflower seed butter instead, as well as a ripe avocado. It's totally free of any sugar or sweeteners, but still has a rich taste and texture, while being packed with protein and healthy fats!

Step 1

I've chosen to use homemade sun butter here, but you can also make almond or peanut butter if you desire. For my 8 cup food processor, I use about 12 oz (336 g) of seeds or nuts. Blend on high for a few minutes, until a super smooth nut butter forms. Reserve 1/2 cup (128 g) in the food processor, and transfer the rest to a mason jar. Store the leftovers at room temperature for about a week

Step 2

Blend in the rest of the ingredients in the order above. Add the solids (cocoa powder, whey, and casein) last, in order to make sure everything else is fully combined. You will have a very thick paste. Optionally, add 1 tbsp (21 g) of honey if you want it a little sweeter

Step 3

Line an 8" square baking pan with parchment paper, and press the mixture into all corners, making sure it is of even thickness. Remember, it's very thick, so this may take a bit of work

Step 4

Transfer to the freezer for a few hours to harden before slicing. Store leftovers in the fridge or freezer
