Guilt free Vegan Fudge Recipe

AAAh... but we do share our recipes......

We share our recipes and our friends share their recipes with us too. Catherine at the VEGAN KITCHEN is Vegan Food specialist and was kind enough to share this Peanut butter Fudge recipe with her friend Nadia, our head chef.

Like any collector, Chefs and foodies pride themselves on their recipe collections. Collecting and sharing recipes that cater for all types of dietary requirements takes time, effort and always requires research.  Sometimes it requires reaching out to talented creative foodie friends in the business.

It is such a compliment being asked for a recipe and gifting others with recipes is simply joyous. It is what keeps us searching for more special recipes that delight and surprise the tastebuds!

Creativity and experimentation with Vegan cooking can require a bit more creativity and experimentation than traditional cooking, since many traditional ingredients are off-limits. When delicious vegan food is created, there is a sense of excitement and thrill at having found a new way to prepare food that is both tasty and healthy. Sharing recipes is a way to connect with others, feel a sense of accomplishment, promote health and sustainability, and explore creativity and experimentation in the kitchen.

Veganism is a dietary choice that many people have made for ethical, health or environmental reasons and we at Makakatana try to provide great options for our guests who follow a vegan diet. We are happy to offer vegan meals on our menu on request.

Enjoy the fudge!

Prepare a shallow baking dish by placing a layer of wax paper and  spraying with a non-stick spray.
Put the sugar and the milk into a pot on moderate heat.  Once it starts to boil use a kitchen timer and time 2.5 minutes, then remove from the heat and add the peanut butter and the vanilla. 
Pour it into the baking dish.  Once it has started setting, cut it into squares.
