Baking isn’t really my thing… we all know that by now; however, quick and easy desserts that I can throw together and not have to bake, I am in! These Crunchy Almond Butter Freezer Fudge Bars are just that. Easy and freaking delicious! I am crazy about them and so are my kiddos!
Another thing about me: my salt tooth is like way stronger than my sweet tooth. So for me, the sweet + salty combo of these fudge bars are everything I could ever want in a dessert. I also love to have a little crunch in my desserts, especially in my fudge, which is why I added in Paleo Passion Foods Choco-nut Granola. I love their granola because it’s paleo-friendly, grain-free, and delicious! Perfect for an afternoon snack, on top of smoothies for a little crunch, or in treats like this!

November 4, 2017 at 8:43 pmOk I bought the granola and I am going to give these a try – do you think they would work well with cashew butter? my family is more of a cashew butter family than almond butter!
