I’ve away for some sun and fun but I am blessed to offer my readers some wonderful guest posts from some of my favorite bloggers and friends. Today’s post is from my “Big” sister blogger Holly and I can not wait to try this fantastic recipe. This is another perfect example that having food allergies/intolerances doesn’t mean you have to go without. 

Please enjoy this post from Holly and take some time to check out her wonderful blog.  Hi! I’m Holly and I blog over at Back Home Again, mainly about my family’s adventures and our attempts to live a more sustainable lifestyle. I first “met” Sheryl through the Bigs & Littles Blogging Network and we have become good friends. I travel to her town for work on occasion, so maybe one of these days we’ll get to go on a blate!

When she asked me if I would guest post while she’s on her fantabulous vacation, I knew just what I would write about. Both of us suffer from food intolerances/allergies and I thought I would leave her lovely readers with a paleo recipe I accidentally created that is really good (and addicting!). 
I was making paleo frosting for some Easter cupcakes using this recipe from Elana’s Pantry and had a ton left over. I had heard of making paleo fudge before using almond butter, a bunch of other ingredients and coconut oil. So, I decided to add some almond butter to the frosting to try to make fudge and success! I love it because it’s so simple.

Paleo Fudge 1 cup chocolate chips (I used Ghiradelli 60% dark)
1/3 c coconut oil
1 tbs vanilla
1/2-3/4 c almond butter (I used Trader Joe’s unsweetened) Melt all ingredients and pour into a small baking dish
Let harden in the fridge The fudge has to stay chilled in the fridge otherwise it will melt due to the coconut oil. Just a warning, it’s really addictive! The batch I made to take photos didn’t last a day in our house!
