Healthy fudge sounds difficult. How hard is it to make?
Your 4-year-old could easily make this fudge all by themselves! It’s that easy!
Simply measure out the ingredients.
Pour them into a bowl.
Give it a good stir… and the batter is done.
Then, pour into a small square container that is lined with parchment paper and spread out evenly.
Put in the freezer for about 2 hours until it turns very firm.
Once frozen, pull the parchment paper out of the pan. Put onto a flat surface before cutting the fudge into 1-inch squares. Keep in an airtight container in the freezer until ready to eat.

These are perfect for new moms too. This was one of my favorite recipes when my kids were babies! I used to whip up a batch in a few minutes and then have a filling snack to grab when there was no time to eat. Full of nutrients and healthy fats for nursing moms!

Can you use maple syrup or honey or a mixture of both instead of Agave nectar?
Hi Diana,
Yes, you can use any type of syrup like sweeter. Maple syrup with just give it a slight maple flavor. Enjoy!
