Hello August . . .

Can you even believe it?!

August . . .

Already?!

Um, how?!

I feel like this year is just flying by in record time!

Seriously, August . . . already?!

I really can’t believe it.

But, as shocked as I am that it’s August already I’m also super excited about it because August = birthday month baby!!!! 🎉🎉🎉

I’m thinking there is no better way to kick off birthday month (Oh, yes – I really do like the sound of that) than by sharing with my new fave treat with my fave peeps (FYI – that’s you) ❤️❤️❤️

Healthy, homemade, salted dark chocolate peanut butter tahini fudge bites for everyone!!!

Try saying that 10 times fast?!

Actually, let’s not worry about saying, let’s just make and eat it shall we?!

So about this whole quick and easy, DIY – healthy homemade chocolate thing . . . I can’t stop . . .

Well that’s not entirely true, I probably could if I wanted but, ummmmmm  . . . just between you and me, I really don’t.

Not even a little bit.

And, when it’s so easy to make with just 6 ingredients and 5 minutes to stir it all together (Yes, it really is that easy!) . . . why would I want to?!

Yep . . . cant stop, not sorry

And, this latest creation has taken my chocolate + nut butter loving obsession to a whole new level . . . 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

It’s 2 of my greatest loves combined into one decadent, rich, deliciously indulgent (yet secretly healthy) divine little mouthful! #worthit

Please don’t let the fact that I’m asking you to make your own chocolate intimidate or put you off making this recipe . . . I promise you there is reason to be scared or intimidated in the slightest – it really is as simple as – melt, stir, set, eat – you can (and should!!) do this!  👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Like now!

Healthy, homemade chocolate peanut butter fudge . . .

What more do I need to tell you?!

I mean, would you just look at them?!

Just sitting there in all their lightly salted, dark, delicious, seriously fudge-y, peanut butter stuffed glory 😍😍😍

Get. In. My. Belly

Just in case you need a leetle more convincing . . . not only are these insanely delicious,  secretly healthy, decadent and rich, peanut butter stuffed fudge bites super quick and easy to prepare, made with no refined flours or sugars, using just 6 real food ingredients, that I bet you have on hand already and come together in well under 10 minutes but, they also happen to be dairy free, sugar free, gluten free, vegan, keto and paleo friendly.

Paleo friends simply use in your fave almond (or nut butter of choice) in place of the PB and any of you folks with nut allergies you can easily make them nut free – sunbutter (or your fave nut free spread) would work perfectly here too! Don’t you worry your pretty little head, I got you covered 😘😘😘

Now, one more thing before I go and let you get your chocolate making on,these deliciously simple, secretly healthy dark chocolate peanut butter fudge bites we’re making . . . they aren’t for the faint of heart.

They are decadent and rich, deliciously indulgent and seriously, and I mean
S E R I O U S L Y chocolaty.

For those of you who prefer your chocolate on the sweeter side feel free to bump up the amount of vanilla you use, or you could go ahead and add in a drizzle of maple syrup or honey if you prefer – the trick is to taste as you go and customize as needed.

That’s another thing I love about making your own homemade treats – not only is it a lot better for you ( our fudge is made with no refined flours, sugars, weird fillers or unpronounceable ingredients)  and it’s 100% customizable.

Play around, have some fun and make it just the way you like it just do me a favor and promise me that you will make this, asap!

I’m talking like, today!

Seriously, stop what you’re doing . . .this needs to happen, now!

Ok, I’ll stop now because honestly, I could talk about these beauties all. day. long.

And, you don’t need to listen to me go on and on (and on and on and on and on) about how insanely delicious and in love with them I am, you need to go make and taste them for yourself . . .  one taste and I know you’ll agree . . .

All natural, quick and easy, deliciously simple, secretly healthy, decadent, rich, lightly salted, peanut butter stuffed dark chocolate tahini fudge bites . . .

A little piece of heaven in your hot little hand.

Make them. Eat them. Love, love, love them!

Salted Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Tahini Fudge Bites
{Dairy Free – Sugar Free – Gluten Free –
Vegan – Keto & Paleo Friendly}

Makes approx 16 deliciously indulgent, decadent and rich, seriously chocolaty, tiny but mighty, peanut butter stuffed dark chocolate tahini fudge bites.

Ingredients –

1/4 cup cacao butter

1/4 cup cacao

1/4 cup tahini

2 teaspoons of vanilla extract (or 10-12 drops of vanilla cream stevia – I like to use Sweet Leaf Stevia )

1/4 teaspoon instant espresso – optional but recommended

1 pinch of salt + extra for serving

4 Tablespoons of peanut butter – I use Byron Bay Peanut butter – It’s made with just peanuts and mineral salt and is so, SO good! Highly, HIGHLY recommend! Get yours 👉🏻 here 👈🏻 (Paleo friends just sub almond butter or nut butter of choice or to make them nut free use your fave sunbutter)

 

1 teaspoons maca – optional for hormone balance

1-2 scoops of  Vital proteins unflavored collagen peptides – optional for an extra dose of protein and gut healing goodness

Method –

1 – Place cacao butter into a medium size bowl and melt by your preferred method. I like to do mine on the stove top, double boiler style, by placing the bowl on top of saucepan filled with just a few inches of water.

2 – Once your cacao butter has melted, add remaining ingredients and stir until smooth and well combined.

3 – Pour (or spoon) 3/4 of your melted fudge mixture into a chocolate mould tray (or you could just place some paper cupcake cases on to a baking sheet, or use a mini muffin tray instead)

4 – Place into the fridge or freezer to set.

5 – Once set, top each fudge bite with a teaspoon of nut butter (use the back of the spoon to flatten and smooth it out to the edges, then cover your nut butter with a drizzle of the left over chocolate fudge (again use your spoon to cover your nut butter and spread it to out to the edges).

6 – Sprinkle with a little sea salt then place them back into the fridge or freezer for 5 minutes to set and voila’

Enjoy xo

Note – These beauties are best stored in the fridge (or freezer) as they tend to soften in warmer temperatures
