Healthy Matcha Honey Swirl Freezer Fudge

This delightfully green "freezer fudge" is loaded with fresh spring flavor from matcha green tea, honey, and vanilla. It's a good-for-the-body treat that you can feel great about enjoying.

Ingredients

  • 1 c smooth, natural cashew butter
  • 0.25 c melted coconut oil
  • 0.25 c honey
  • 0.5 tsp vanilla
  • 1 tbsp matcha green tea powder
  • Several matcha chocolates, optional

Instructions

  1. Line a loaf pan with wax paper or plastic wrap, leaving enough paper on the sides so that you can pull the fudge out after it sets.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the cashew butter, melted coconut oil, honey, and vanilla, stirring until smooth.
  3. Set half of the mixture aside. To the remaining half of the mixture, add the matcha and mix well.
  4. Pour the matcha half of the mixture into the loaf pan first, then pour the uncolored half of the mixture on top. Using a butter knife, make several looping swirls to partially mix the two colors.
  5. Optional: chop the matcha chocolates coarsely. Sprinkle them across the top of the fudge, pressing them down lightly into the surface so they stick.
  6. Cover the loaf pan with plastic wrap and place it in the freezer. Freeze overnight.
  7. Remove the fudge from the freezer. Using the sides of the wax paper or plastic wrap, pull the fudge out of the pan. Make two cuts length-wise and four cuts width-wise to yield 15 small squares.
  8. Store the fudge in the freezer in an air-tight container for up to several weeks. To serve, let the fudge warm up for five minutes at room temperature.
