Oh My Gosh It's Good! Coconut Almond Fudge
Given to me by Michelle Johnson
Be sure you only use extra-virgin, unrefined, organic coconut oil, the refined coconut oil is no better than a trans-fat so stay away from that! Below the yummy candy photo I've shared some other benefits of coconut oil so if you need to purchase some, get a large jar. You can often find unrefined extra virgin coconut oil at Costco and always at VitaCost.com to save some $$. I usually buy Nutiva Coconut Oil. PLEASE don't buy the LouAnn brand, it is

Notes
Don't eat more than one a day and do it in place of one of your good fats like coconut oil or an avocado. This is a great way to get coconut oil daily, good for your brain. It tastes like the coconut candies you get in the assorted boxes of chocolates or a really good mounds bar. I prefer using crunchy almond butter for this one. The raw chocolate makes it out of this world but if you don't have that or need to save $$ use a good cocoa.
