Sunbutter Fudge

In an effort to wean myself from my Cadbury Mini Egg addiction (I know I'm not supposed to be eating them, but they appeared in our local grocery store before Christmas! How am I supposed to resist them for 5 months straight??!!), I've been searching for an easy dairy free fudge recipe. Several recipes I found had way too many ingredients- I want SIMPLE- but I did find one that I thought would work, so I gave it a try. Unfortunately, it wasn't creamy or very yummy. After a bit more searching I found this recipe that looked promising. I like plain and simple fudge, so I ommitted the apricots and orange zest, and I made a couple tweaks so it would be in line with what we should and should not be eating (and what I had in my cupboard- I didn't have any agave nectar). The result took all of 10 minutes to make and has great texture and flavor. Yum!

Sunbutter Fudge

3/4 c. Enjoy Life chocolate mini chips or mega chunks

1/4 c. sunbutter (sunflower seed butter)- creamy or chunky
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1/4 c. honey

Carefully melt chocolate chips over a double boiler or in the microwave. If you do it in the microwave, make sure you stir frequently so the chocolate doesn't scorch.

Once melted, stir in sunbutter and vanilla.

Then stir in honey.

As you stir, the mixture should thicken up nicely.

This batch fills this silicone brownie pop pan I found on clearance at Target a few years ago.

If you double the batch, you can spread it in a lightly greased or parchment paper-lined 8"x8" pan. Refrigerate an hour or so till set and hardened, then enjoy!
