Windy City Organics sent me some Dastony Hemp Seed Butter to create recipes with, and although I love it in savory applications, sweet is wonderful too. I love to include hemp seeds in my brownies sometimes, so I thought the butter might just make amazing fudge.
So, I created a simple fudge recipe with it. We are all busy, and some days have only a little bit of time to prepare things in the kitchen, but I can guarantee you have time to make this! It requires no special equipment either! So no excuses for you! After I mixed the ingredients together and tasted it…omg, simply heavenly. I could have sat there with a spoon and eaten it all in one sitting but we all know that would be gluttony and what would I look forward to then?
Once it set up the texture was perfect, way better than any other fudge I have had Side note, I used to love my fudge as a child…we would buy it from shops up north and I would polish off a pound in no time. This is better that that! I wasn’t selfish, I shared some with family members and they loved it as well. The best part about this recipe besides it being easy and delicious is that you get your healthy omega 3 oils too!
