PEANUT BUTTER / RAW CACAO FUDGE PIE – super fast & easy

This yummy fudge pie is an adaptation of a recipe in the old La Leche League Cookbook. It is so easy and quick with a rich taste, but at the same time sugar, diary & wheat free. It freezes well. Suitable for Passover, as it does not contain leaven.

  • 1 cup raw honey
  • 6 eggs (from free range & grain fed chickens, preferably organic)
  • natural vanilla powder
  • Makes 24 squares – this is a rich pie, so keep pieces small.

for the icing (optional):

  • icing sugar
  • any liqueur – the creamy ones like Baileys or Amarula are the best
