Fudge it notoriously difficult to make, but not this recipe! Mix it up and pop into the fridge for a creamy, healthy fudge recipe that’ll soon become your favourite pud.

If its deliciousness isn’t enough, it also packs 8g of protein per tiny square and only 4g of carbs. That means you can now eat fudge as a post-workout snack — ideal to say the least!

The only added sweetener is maple syrup which keeps it nice and natural. That makes it a heck of a lot better for you than a lot of other peanut butter fudge recipes out there too. You won’t be compromising on taste though. The Chocolate Smooth Whey Protein and cocoa powder make every bite of this healthy fudge perfectly chocolatey and rich.

We’ve waved a magic wand of chocolate drizzle over the top too. A great optional extra to make your fudge look extra appetizing — if that’s even possible…
