Instructions
Prepare the Pan: Line a mini loaf pan with parchment paper and lightly coat it with cooking spray.
Melt and Mix: In a microwave-safe bowl or small saucepan over low heat, gently melt the cashew butter. Stir in the protein powder until fully blended.
Add Sweetener: Pour in the maple syrup and mix well until everything is evenly combined. If the mixture appears too dry or crumbly, add the milk one tablespoon at a time, stirring until smooth.
Freeze: Spread the fudge mixture evenly into the prepared pan. Place it in the freezer for at least 30 minutes or until firm.
Slice and Store: Once set, remove the fudge from the pan, cut it into 8 pieces, and store them in the freezer. When ready to eat, let a piece thaw for about 5 minutes before enjoying.
Notes
If the protein powder makes the mixture gritty, add more milk gradually until the texture is smooth.
Keep the fudge stored in the freezer and thaw briefly before eating.
Add cocoa powder for a chocolate-flavored version.
Use sugar-free maple syrup for a lower-carb option.
