FAQs
Can I use natural almond butter for this recipe?
Yes, natural almond butter works well, but it may make the fudge slightly softer. If your almond butter is very oily, stir it well before mixing.
Do I have to use chocolate, or can I skip it?
Chocolate adds richness and helps the fudge set properly, but you can make a simple almond butter fudge without it. Keep in mind the texture and flavor will be different.
