HEALTHY RAW RED VELVET FUDGE

HEALTHY RAW RED VELVET FUDGE

INGREDIENTS:

• 12oz Raw Cashew Pieces
• 1½ cups Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk
• 246g (1 cup) Beet Puree**
• 4 tsp Vanilla Extract
• 1 tsp Stevia Extract
• ¼ tsp Pink Himalayan Salt
• 224g (1 cup) Raw Cacao Butter, melted
• 84g (4 scoops) Vanilla Brown Rice Protein Powder
• 20g (¼ cup) Unsweetened Natural Cocoa Powder

DIRECTIONS:

1. Line an 8×8″ brownie pan with parchment paper both ways.
2. In a sealable container, add the cashews, almond milk and beet puree.  Cover with a lid and refrigerate overnight.
3. The next day, dump the entire cashew/milk/beet mixture into a high-speed blender (I used my Vitamix).  Add the vanilla extract, stevia extract and salt.  Blend on high speed until completely smooth.
4. Pour in the melted cacao butter and blend again.
5. Add the protein powder and cocoa powder and blend one last time.
6. Scoop the mixture into the prepared pan and spread it out.  Tap the pan on the counter a few times to help get rid of air bubbles.  Use an offset spatula if you want to spread out a perfectly flat top!  Cover the pan and refrigerate overnight.
7. Slice, serve, and enjoy!

NOTES:
This recipe is considered “high-raw.”
**I used roasted beet puree (instructions on how to make roasted beet puree HERE) because that’s what I had on hand from making Red Velvet Pancakes! I know it’s roasted and not “raw” but roasted beets have a better flavor than raw (in my opinion), and provide an amazingly vibrant reddish pinkish color. You can probably use grated raw beets or canned beets, but I haven’t tried those variations so I can’t say how they’ll turn out.
