My sister Heather gave me this recipe. In my no sugar state I really appreciated it! But even my kids and husband who still consume sugary sweets on a somewhat regular basis, love these. Don't be expecting fudge because it isn't. It is gooey goodness with lots of wholesome flavor. Your first taste will be surprising. Then you will be intrigued. The next thing you know, you will not be able to go into the kitchen without digging these out of the freezer. And before you know it, they will be all gone!
Not Really Fudge
1 banana
1/2 cups soaked and pitted dates (soak at least 15 minutes)
1 heaping Tbl of coconut oil
1/4 cup raw sunflower seeds (I like to soak mine for a few hours but it is not necessary)
1/4 cup cocoa
natural peanut butter (optional)
process all ingredients in a food processor except peanut butter
smooth out onto wax or parchment paper on a small cookie sheet
swirl peanut butter through fudge with a knife (or spread on top once fudge starts to freeze)
freeze
serve frozen in bite size pieces *
*This fudge thaws really quickly. It cuts easily frozen and by the time you get it on your plate or pop it in your mouth it is perfect.
