12 Jun Paleo Chocolate Fudge
I was going to call this recipe Chocolate Tahini Fudge, but I didn’t want to scare anyone off who may be intimidated by tahini. If you haven’t used tahini in a sweet recipe before, you are totally missing out! I love using tahini in salad dressings and sauces, but I think it is secretly the best ingredient for paleo treats. I love using it with chocolate because the creamy consistency goes so well with rich cacao. Plus, if you don’t love the taste of tahini, the cacao definitely overpowers it- leaving you with the most amazing, decadent freezer fudge of all time!

Notes
I use the organic Tahini from Trader Joe's. The only ingredient is sesame seeds, the consistency is creamy and the taste is rich without a bitter after taste. I highly recommend this tahini not only for this recipe, but for salad dressings, sauces, etc. It's a staple in my pantry!
