NO-BAKE *PROTEIN* FUDGE

 
 
NO-BAKE *PROTEIN* FUDGE (6 WW points)
Ingredients

2 large avocados, pitted and skin removed
4 scoops (120 g) vanilla whey protein powder, naturally sweetened
1/2 cup cocoa powder, unsweetened
1/8 tsp salt + more coarse salt for sprinkling on top (optional)
2 + 1/2 cups walnuts
1 + 1/2 cups dates, pitted & chopped

Directions

Add avocados, cocoa powder, protein powder and 1/8 tsp salt to a food processor and process until smooth.
Add 1 cup of walnuts and 1 cup of dates and process until smooth. Add another 1 cup of walnuts (reserve 1/2 cup for next step) and remaining 1/2 cup of dates, and process until smooth. Note: if you think your food processor can handle all nuts and dates at once please go ahead. My KitchenAid couldn't and it kept shutting off.
Add remaining 1/2 cup walnuts and pulse a couple times. This will give a nice crunch to the fudge.
Line 8x8 or 8x4 baking dish with parchment paper (not wax paper) and place the mixture from the food processor in it. Press firmly with the back of a spoon or spatula to remove any air.
Freeze for at least 3 hours. Remove from the pan, slice into 18 squares and sprinkle with coarse sea salt (optional).
Storage Instructions: Store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to a month. No need to thaw before serving, the fudge will not freeze completely.
