Mocha Tahini Fudge

by

That bottle of tahini in your pantry isn’t limited to dressings and hummus – in fact, it’s destined for something much sweeter. Rich in chocolate and coffee flavor, this no-bake fudge is a delightful escape from the usual, overly sweet versions you find at your local grocery store. Made without nuts, dairy or refined sugars, you can feel good about indulging in one (or two) of these bite-sized treats after lunch, dinner or whenever else your sweet tooth needs satisfying. The cacao nibs give it a pleasant crunch, but if you’re craving a creamier texture just omit the nibs and double up on cacao powder.
