OMG. Did you miss me? I thought about not posting and just sleeping for days instead, but what the hell would you eat for dessert this week?? And what would I eat for dessert?!?! That’s the real question. I hope you’re pumped for this recipe because it made me extremely happy. I kind of want to just post desserts all week after strict eating before Regionals. Strict eating made me slightly forget how much I love sweets, but don’t worry, I re-grew that part of my brain back on Sunday at Five Guys Burgers and Sweet Action Ice Cream. BOOM.
Ok, here’s my issue. Most posts I talk about what I did over the weekend. But most weekends aren’t Regionals…THE BEST WEEKEND OF THE YEAR. And I obviously have to have a post dedicated to this specific weekend. So I’ll kind of just recap.
Here’s how the weekend played out.
- I couldn’t eat anything the first day because I was so nervous.
- I couldn’t smile because I thought I was going to crap myself pretty much every second of the day.
- I got a personal record in my Diane time. Not crazy fast like the ladies in my heat, but I was pumped about it!
- I ate a ton more food the second day. Thank the lord for John at the Paleo Wagon and of Simply Pure Nutrients or I would have had absolutely no energy.
- I got the god damn 70lb dumbbell over my head. 40 times!!
- I got a personal record in my snatch. Did a happy dance. Then cried tears of pure joy. Not even joking.
- I drank more coconut water than I knew possible.
- I found out the heating area is a place you’re suppose to be serious in….I suck at that rule.
- I finished all my muscle ups.
- I met a bunch of people who read my blog!!
- I ached.
- I cheered.
- I laughed.
- I smiled.
- I drank a lot of Americanos.
- After the competition, I consumed gluten. In the form of a bun. It.was.epic. But I was ridiculously sick the rest of the night. Sergio regrets hanging around.
- And no, no CrossFit man asked me out. The bastards.
This weekend was absolutely the best weekend of my life. Hands down. Best people, best moments, best crowd. Everything was perfect. And I truly couldn’t be happier. Can’t wait to share all about it on Friday!
I missed a lot on Pinterest this weekend.
But I got Instagram!! Follow me @paleomg!
Now for food. Holy balls I love dessert.
Double Layer Fudge
Ingredients
- 1 cup coconut oil
- 1 cup almond butter
- 1/2 cup raw honey
- 1/3 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 4–5 heaping tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- pinch of salt
- a handful of Enjoy Life Chocolate Chips or your choice of dark chocolate chips
- extra sprinkle of unsweetened shredded coconut
Instructions
- Add your coconut oil to a food processor. It doesn’t have to be melted so don’t you worry your little heart about melting it down!
- Then add your almond butter, unsweetened shredded coconut, vanilla extract, and honey and just a small pinch of salt.
- Mix all ingredients until fully combined.
- Pour half the ingredients into a bread pan and use a spoon to spread out evenly. It doesn’t matter what size bread pan you use. The smaller it is, the taller your fudge will be and vise versa.
- Place in freezer to harden.
- Then place food processor bowl back on the motor and add your cocoa powder. Add 1-2 tablespoons at a time, mixing as you go to make sure you don’t use too much.
- Once cocoa powder is incorporated in, add a pinch of salt, mix thoroughly, then pour your chocolate fudge on top of your now hardened light fudge.
- Sprinkle with chocolate chips, shredded coconut, and a bit of salt and place is freezer for 10-15 minutes.
- Cut into chunks.
- Eat the chunks.
- Store the leftover chunks in the fridge.
Notes
This serves either one person or a lot of people. You be the judge.

OMG!!! Ha ha…amazing! Cured my…I NEED CHOCOLATE! I WANT A BROWNIE OR HOT FUDGE SUNDAE craving!
Thanks for being my paleo savior in disguise 🙂
Love it! Scrumptious!
HOLY SHITBALLS! These are awesome. I can’t even stand it how good they are! I’m going to keep a tub of these little bastards in the fridge for emergencies. I won’t eat them all at once, but every now and then when I get a craving, I can hit one. BTW…I. Love. You. But not in a creepy stalker kinda way, only in a thank you baby buddha she invented this recipe kinda way. hahahaha.
PaleOMG!!! This is freaking AMAZING!!! I am making this for a friend who just had a baby and I almost thought about keeping it all for myself. I am also making 2 other of your recipes for them today, 4th of July spinach dip and easy shredded beef but with pork loin cause that’s what I had in the freezer. I love your recipes so much and they are going to love me for making them! Thank you so much for the delicious food. Keep it coming. I can’t wait for the cookbook!!!
Waiting for this to cool in my freezer. Yay!
Oh. My. This was AMAZE-BALLS good. Second time around I made it using organic maple syrup instead of the honey (slightly lower in sugars) and raw organic cacao instead of the cocoa (again, some would say lower in sugars and higher in antioxidants, blah blah). Just as good! Loving your blog, keep up the awesome work! <3
You’re a magical creature, JB – this fudge turned out incredibly well and was super easy…small piece of advice for the uninitiated though: if you leave your chocolate bit processing for much longer after all your ingredients are incorporated, you’ll end up with cake. I had to go buy more coconut oil and almond butter, lol. Still, great recipe, great site. Thanks!
Holy YUM. Just started Paleo last week to help with my PCOS, not a CrossFitter…but was referred to your site for the recipes. Just tried this fudge to help with my first week sugar cravings…..amazeballs!! Thanks for sharing!!
These were amazing!!! Wow thanks soooo much!
Holy sweet tooth, these were good! I don’t even think they need the extra coconut or chocolate chips on top– they’re good enough all on their own. Damn, i hope i can restrain myself from eating all of these before Thanksgiving.
I just have to tell you that every single recipe for my Paleo Thanksgiving dinner is from your site, Juli. I guess that’s bordering on obsession, but I don’t care– your recipes always turn out amazing! Thank you!
