If you like, you can sprinkle them with some crushed pink sea salt or you can either mix it into the batter.

Ingredients:

Sun butter or Nut butter: Sunbutter aka sunflower seed butter works really well here and I love the smooth, creamy texture. It has the perfect creamy consistency for fudge and as it’s a seed, it makes this treat nut-free. That being said, you can use any nut or seed butter you like. Peanut butter, almond butter, or cashew butter all work. You just want to make sure it’s not too dry, whatever “butter” you use should be drippy and easily spreadable.
Semi-sweet chocolate chips: I use semi-sweet chocolate as that is sweet enough that you don’t need much added sweetness. If using dark chocolate or unsweetened chocolate, add some sweetener of choice as needed.
Maple syrup for natural sweetness. No refined sugar in here.

Tips and Substitutions:
