This freezer fudge is the perfect solution to fulfill your chocolate craving without undoing all your progress toward healthy eating.

🥄 How to make almond butter fudge
Step 1 - Measure out the ingredients and pour them into a mixing bowl. Give it a good stir… and the batter is done.
Step 2 - Pour the batter into a small square container that is lined with parchment paper and spread it out evenly.
Step 3 - Put in the freezer for about 2 hours until it becomes frozen and is very firm.
Step 4 - Once frozen, pull the parchment paper out of the pan and put it onto a flat surface before cutting the fudge into 1-inch squares.
Step 5 - Keep in an airtight container in the freezer until ready to eat.
👩🏻🍳 Pro Tips
- Make sure to keep this fudge in the freezer or it will melt.
- Add slightly more or less agave nectar to taste.
- If you used almond butter with added salt or sugar, you might not need to add as much.
- The amount of agave and salt in the recipe assumes that you are using raw almond butter with no added ingredients.
🥡 Storage
Keep your fudge in the freezer until you are ready to eat it. It will become too soft if kept in the fridge. You can eat it frozen or let it warm up for a few minutes before eating.
These make a perfect quick snack or late-night chocolate fix without the guilt!
Note: 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!

Hii. Could I use peanut butter instead of almond butter?
Hi Malin, you can use any nut butter that you would like. They all have a different taste and texture, so you can experiment and find one that you like. (I also make this with cashew butter sometimes). 🙂
I really like this recipe. However, I've found that sunflower butter is a little easier to measure (and to clean up). The problem is that with sunflower oil the fudge just kind of falls apart like frosting unless it is kept frozen. Is there any kind of thickening agent I could add?
You could try adding a little flour to it to thicken it up. However, it is a freezer fudge recipe and it's meant to eat cold.:)
I'm going to make this, after having sampled a piece at my neighbour's. Please note the word "healthy" is spelled wrong at the top of your recipe - "Healty Fudge -..."
Hi Lisa, I'm glad that you liked it! Thanks for the heads up on the typo! It's just me here at my computer typing up these recipes, so sometimes those things go unnoticed. 🙂
Delicious! Only prep time was like 30 minutes for stirring the almond butter back together with its oil lmao
That's so funny! Yes, once your nut butters have been sitting a while, they need a lot of stirring! So glad that you liked the recipe though! 🙂
Yum! This stuff is amazing!
Going to try this today....making a cashew nut butter and maple syrup version as well. Or how about macadamia nut butter and pumpkin spiced light agave or honey?
Hope you liked it Robin. I've been making it with pumpkin lately too. The pumpkin is great with cashew butter and some pumpkin pie spice! I'll put the official recipe on the blog soon. 🙂
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!
This stuff is so good! I ate a whole batch myself! I can't stop eating it!
🙂 I have the same problem Rachel! I can't make this too much or I eat it all!
Nice post
