I Tried it and I Liked it: Almond Chocolate Freezer Fudge

I found this recipe at foodbabe.com and tucked it away for a time when we would need a little treat and am so glad I did! This is a simple recipe that can actually be pretty good for you. Eaten in moderation, of course! :)

I made this exactly as directed - no need for improvements here!

My only note would be that this is called freezer fudge for a reason; it must stay cold! Otherwise, it melts quickly. Which actually wouldn't be too bad...I could see this being used as a chunky spread. Mmmmhmmm. So, I guess what I'm saying is don't think you'll make this up and take it to a potluck or something. Keep it at home. In your freezer. All. To. Yourself.
