Fudge Method
- Line a cake tray with baking paper and set aside.
- Make the chocolate layer first. In a bowl, mix together cocoa powder, pea protein, coconut oil, natural sweetener and almond milk until smooth and creamy.
- Spread the chocolate mixture over the bottom of the cake tray. Chill in the refrigerator while you make the top layers.
- To make the almond layer, mix almonds, flax meal and butter together until well combined.
- Layer the almond mixture on top of the chilled chocolate layer. Press the almonds down gently.
- In a separate bowl, whisk butter, tahini and caramel flavour until smooth and fudge-like. Spread the caramel mixture over the top of the almonds. Place in the freezer for an hour until firm.
- Once the fudge has set, chop it into desired sized bites and devour!
