Notes
If you have a peanut allergy or to make it paleo, you can substitute almond butter for the peanut butter. For nut-free fudge, use sunflower seed butter.
If your dates are overly dry, pit then soak in hot water for 15 minutes. Drain well before using in recipe. If you don’t have access to medjool dates, you can use sayer or deglect noor.
If you don’t have pumpkin pie spice, use 1 tsp cinnamon, 1/2 tsp ginger and 1/4 tsp nutmeg. A pinch of cloves or allspice works too!
