Clean Chocolate Fudge
(recipe source: iFOODreal.com)

I have to say that I was more than a bit hesitant to try this fudge. I couldn't even imagine how this would turn out but I was determined to give it a shot. One word. Delicious. Plus, it's super healthy without all that sugar and sweetened condensed milk. C'mon.. try it! I bet you'll be surprised as well. Oh, btw.. my kids loved it without hesitation. LoL Mom:1 Kids:0


2 small avocados, skin and pits removed
1 medium banana, peeled (yellow, not too ripe)
1 cup dates, pitted
1 cup walnuts
1/4 cup cocoa powder, unsweetened
1/4 tsp salt
Coarse sea salt for topping, to taste

Add all ingredients (except coarse sea salt) in a food processor and process until combined and smooth paste/dough forms. Depending on your food processor, you might have to stop and push ingredients down the bowl and scrape of the walls with a spatula. Also try to alternate between High and Low speeds. You might have small pieces of dates left, that's OK.

Line 8 x 8 square baking dish with parchment paper leaving extra flaps on the sides. Transfer paste/dough into the dish and press first and then level with spatula. Sprinkle with coarse sea salt. Freeze for at least 2 hours. Transfer fudge lifting by the parchment side flaps to a cutting board and cut into 12 squares.

Storage Instructions: Keep in the freezer, in an airtight container for up to 1 month. You can stack fudge in the container by placing pieces of parchment paper in between.
