• 1/2 cup raw, organic cacao nibs (finely ground in your Vitamix)
• 8 1/2 oz raw, organic cacao powder
• 3/4 cup raw, organic almond butter
• 1 cup raw, organic goji berries
• 1/2 tsp Himalayan Pink salt or Celtic Sea Salt
• 1 cup raw, vegan coconut nectar

Directions

• Melt the cacao butter in a double boiler and then pour into a blender.
• Slice the vanilla beans in half lengthwise. With a spoon, thoroughly scrape the insides of the beans and add to blender.
• Blend until vanilla is totally broken down and mixture feels warm.
• Pour into a large mixing bowl and stir in the salt, coconut syrup, and almond butter by hand.
• Grind the cacao nibs in a coffee grinder until finely ground. Add to the large mixing bowl along with the cacao powder.
• Fold the goji berries into the mixture.
• Stir by hand until smooth and there are no pockets of cacao powder.
• Line a baking sheet or pan with heavy waxed paper
• Transfer mixture to the baking sheet or pan and use a spatula to get a smooth top.
• Set in the fridge or freezer until fudge becomes hard. This will take about 20 minutes.
• Remove from the fridge or freezer and cut into the size and shapes you choose.
• Feel free to get creative and substitute your favorite fruit or nuts or a combo of both! You could also try topping it with nibs or coconut! Mmm!
