Nutritionist-Approved! Maca Chocolate Hazelnut Vegan Fudge Recipe

Here's a dairy-free, gluten-free, and vegan fudge recipe that our BodyRock Nutritionist Laura (@gowithyourgut on Instagram) whipped up for BodyRock’s Instagram following. 

Not only is this vegan fudge healthy and free of the processed sugars, but it is packed with anti-oxidants. 

From Laura: "Maca is an adaptogen and adaptogens help the body adapt to stress. Raw cacao is a superfood that is a great source of calcium and is nourishing and calming--exactly what we need right now!"
