Vegan Almond Butter Freezer Fudge

 

The summertime heat has hit.  Which means it’s time to stock the freezer with delicious treats.  What’s my new favorite way to cool off?  Vegan, melt in your mouth, almond butter freezer fudge with a chocolate topping–inspired by Oh She Glows’ and Detoxinista’s recipe.  The added bonus is that it’s super easy to make.

 

First, mix all of the almond butter base layer  ingredients together and pour into a greased loaf pan.  Place the loaf pan in the freezer for at least an hour before adding the chocolate topping.
