🛒 Ingredients

✓ 1/4 cup powdered peanut butter (PB2 or Jif brand)
✓ 2 tbsp natural almond butter
✓ 1/2 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
✓ 2 tbsp coconut oil
✓ 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
✓ 20g vanilla protein powder
✓ 3 tbsp pure maple syrup
✓ 1/4 tsp sea salt

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Hydrate the Powdered Peanut Butter: In a small bowl, combine the powdered peanut butter with 3 tablespoons of warm water, stirring until it reaches a thick paste consistency (similar to natural peanut butter). This rehydrates the powder and brings back peanut flavor intensity.

2. Bloom the Cocoa: In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together unsweetened cocoa powder with 2 tablespoons of hot water until smooth and glossy, breaking up any lumps. This prevents grittiness and deepens chocolate flavor.

3. Combine Wet Ingredients: Add the rehydrated powdered peanut butter, natural almond butter, Greek yogurt, and coconut oil to the cocoa mixture. Stir vigorously for 1-2 minutes until fully incorporated and smooth.

4. Add Sweetness and Protein: Pour in the maple syrup and vanilla protein powder, then whisk until the mixture is completely uniform with no powder streaks. The batter should be thick but spreadable, like brownie batter.

5. Season and Taste: Add sea salt and stir gently. Taste a small spoonful and adjust sweetness (add 1 more tbsp maple syrup if needed) or salt to your preference. The flavor should be intensely chocolatey-peanutty with a slight salt edge.

6. Portion into Silicone Molds or Parchment: Line a small baking dish or muffin tin with parchment paper or use silicone molds. Spoon the fudge mixture evenly into 8 portions (4 per serving). Smooth the tops with the back of a wet spoon.

7. Add Toppings: Sprinkle dark chocolate chips and chopped peanuts on top of each fudge piece, pressing gently to set. Finish with a tiny pinch of fleur de sel for contrast.

8. Chill and Set: Transfer to the freezer for 15 minutes until firm to the touch, or refrigerate for 30 minutes for a softer, more fudgy bite. Fudge will firm up further as it cools.
