Gluten Free Sunbutter Chocolate Fudge Recipe

Many parts of the country are racked with ice, snow, and freezing cold weather these days. Blizzards, ice storms, and cold fronts are the news of the day.

We all need a little sunshine in our lives, especially when the skies are dark and the temps frigid.

Might I suggest you get your sunshine in the form of fudge? A little unconventional, sure. But who doesn’t love fudge?

Where does the sunshine come in? In the form of sunflowers – after all, what is more sunny than a vibrant, beautiful, orange sunflower? They practically scream warmth, sunshine, and happiness.
