- As a kid, one of my favorite candies was Reece's Peanut Butter Cups. Since going Whole Food Plant Based Vegan I have tried many of the store bought vegan copy cat peanut butter cups. The problem with the store bought versions is that they are still full of refined sugars and oils. We came up with our own version which is has no oil or refined sugars and is gluten free. Only whole food plant based vegan ingredients in these delicious fudge squares.

I made this for Halloween so that I could have a treat, and it was AMAZING! I haven’t had a Reese’s in almost ten years, so thank you for this recipe!!!
I LOVE IT😍😘❤️
Almond meal and almond flour are different. Almond meal is whole almonds blended into a meal - almond flour is the pulp left over from making almond milk, then dried and powdered i.e. is missing the oil. Beautiful recipe.
Ingredients: FILLING
4 medjool dates
1/3 c creamy p-nut butter
[just ground p-nut type]
[no additives]
[preferably unsalted]
1/2 c almond meal/flour
1 t vanilla
If not holding tog, 1 t water
[Hint: process filling first, then use same FP bowl for chocolate layers
Ingredients: CHOCOLATE
16 medjool dates, OR
[2 c of other, smaller dates
2/3 c almond meal/flour
2/3 c cocoa powder
1 t vanilla
If too dry, 1 t water
Thanks
My grandsons are following your example and are learning to cook the vegan way. They are 10 and 13. It's so wonderful. Today for my birthday Will made the chocolate peanut butter bars. Wow! Super delicious. And Max made my husband and I your chocolate pudding. Thank you so much for your website and you tube videos. We are all learning so much from you. Thank you again. You are inspiring
Thank you so much for sharing this with me❤️It made my day 😊🤗
Just ate the first piece and this recipe is a triumph! As I get older and get more in tune with my body, I find that I crave traditional sweets less and less because I always feel unsatisfied with a reasonable portion and my body feels awful afterwards. I'm loving whole food dessert recipes because I actually get full and don't want seconds or thirds. It's a big thing for me. Thanks so much for this one, Jill!
That is fantastic. I’m so glad you are enjoying the healthy desserts. 😊
I enjoy your peanut butter cup fudge. Thank you.
My sister and I just had the most fun making these in memory of our mother, whose birthday is today. Reese cups were her very favorite treat. We can’t wait until they finish chilling. Yum😊
Just made these, I used hazelnut meal as well as almond meal and half neglet noir dates as thats what I had on hand, they were delish! hit the reeses peanut butter craving spot on! Thanks so much :)
I can't wait to try this recipe. I saw another vegan youtuber who made "vegan peanut butter cup ice cream" by buying vegan peanut butter cups and vegan ice cream and mixing them together. I much prefer the Whole Food Plant Based Cooking Show recipes!
That looks amazingly delicious 😋
O, my goodness!!! Made these yesterday and they are incredible. So good, thank you! My 6 and 4 year old beg for them.
I only changed 1 thing - I used Almond Butter due to Peanut allergies in the household. :) And it still tastes like a Peanut Butter cup!
Fantastic!
I made these a week ago. I used Deglet Noor pitted dates which I added extra because they were smaller. The peanut butter fill ing came together, but the chocolate I had to add a tablespoon of maple syrup for it to form a ball. They were delicious. Thanks for the recipe.
This is so delicious. I have honestly made it 3 times. I have a silicone mold that has 16 individual squares. I portion the chocolate out in 16 (or 18 and eat two of them) and smoosh it in, then put the peanut butter in and just keep it to 2 layers, makes it easier. They pop out pretty easily and then I don't have to worry about my cutting/slicing skills being sub par.
Looks amazing and pretty doable 😀 I really appreciate your videos. I went from vegetarian to vegan to WFPB no sugar no oil in the last 5 years. I am taking on my hereditary Diabetes. I am on a low dose of metformin. I want to be prescription free. I see my Doctor on 2/14/2020 to see if my numbers are in a better healthier range. I just turned 60 years old in January 2020. I am not a wiz in the kitchen, but I am trying do to necessity. Your simple yummy videos are really inspiring.
How are ya doin??
This was amazing! I made it today. I was skeptical because I’m not always a fan of almond flour. But this did not disappoint. Totally cured my chocolate craving. I’ve also made your Starbucks copy cat lemon loaf a bunch of times. So delicious…a lot of lemons to squeeze but so worth it! My friends couldn’t believe how yummy it was and so much healthier than the Starbucks version! Thank you for sharing these wonderful recipes!
I just made this and ...OMGOODNESS!!! YummO!!! I must be careful not to eat the entire pan!
Thank you SO much for all of your hard work and awesome recipes & videos
Thank you Jill, I made the recipe yesterday and it was just delicious!
I've been making it for more than a month now. It super delicious and I cannot do without it now. Thank you.
I just made this today for Valentine's Day (we celebrated a day late with our daughter), and it was sooo yummy! My husband said he couldn't tell the difference between this and non-vegan fudge. Thanks for creating a great recipe!
This is just amazing. Thank you for your recipes and thank you for making a printable version! 😊
I just made this wonderful Fudge again and this time I used my new Vitamix and what a difference!
Thanks for this I will continue to to make it.
I didn’t use my date paste, it’s amazing what good equipment and following the exact recipe can do.
I appreciate your kindness.
Looks great I made this after watching your video . I substituted the cocoa powder for black sesame powder and you're right its delicious...
I like how you include your tasting of it and your reaction to it. It really completes the video recipe. I hate when people make it then don't taste it in the video.
All the recipes I watched on this channel seems amazing but never knew if they're as good as they look. Now I know they are after trying this recipe. Those things are really good but keep in mind they're not like Reese's pb cups but as it's described, bownie pb. The outside texture is brownie like and inside similar to Reeses. Great combo that's not excessively sweet, but just right. They keep getting better in the fridge over time and hard not to eat them all. Thank you and great job!
Glad you like them!
Just made this the insurance going to be amazing can't wait to try it later🎉
Love love love your show! ❤
I have been craving a peanut butter cup sooooo bad. I am definitely going to make this. I have no kids at home that I have to share with 😀
So jealous
I have to share 👍🤗
So anxious to try this recipe ❤!
Kids are waiting patiently for their creation to come out of the fridge. Of course they tasted it as they made it so they are really excited.
Instead of almond meal, I use peanut meal. It just makes it that much more peanut-y. I make the meal first by blitzing roasted unsalted peanuts in the food processor. Easy peasy!
Aww we already love you Jill ❤️
This looks great. I’m going to make it for dessert tonight. I’m hoping my blender will work well enough instead of a processor
Your channel is what has helped me stay on point with my switch to WFPB, love you guys and what you do for all of us, helping us enjoy a few old favorites. Thank you so, so much! 💖👍
I made this peanut butter cup fudge for a family game night. It was a big success. I had one of our friends over that is a personal chef, she said they were so delicious and wanted the recipe too.
They look delicious. You could definitely do a caramel inside too.not sure how.
I have been in love with your show even before this amazing recipe omg can’t wait to try this!
Thank you so much for sharing this recipe!I love baking and always enjoy creating new recipes especially when they are whole foods plant based🙌🏻I have been vegan for a few years now, and this is absolutely delicious, one of the best recipe creations I have tried for a long time!👍😍😍😍
I'd love to know what brand of peanut butter you use, it's so creamy. Thanks for another amazing recipe, love your videos!
Oh wow! You are my hero!! I can't wait to try this recipe.

Looks soo good!
I’m salivating...it looks so good!! Can’t wait to make it!
O girl, you can go with that tiny peace?? I'd be putting on a pot of tea, & that would be calling my name!!!!! Loved it! I may make this for our Valentine's meal for my hub & press it into my heart pan.
PIECE--hate when it finishes my word & puts in another one.
Such a great idea!
Thanks for always posting the recipe 😉
I have no patience for the smooshing/sticky part ... but I have no kids to help LOL so I just took a blob between sheets of parchment and rolled it out with a rolling pin.. put it in my square pan .. the peanut butter part I DID just use my hands.. then did the same thing for the top layer of chocolate with the rolling pin. These are delicious!!
11:21 Those peanut butter cups look real sticky. They certainly stuck to your teeth! LOL :-D I love that you didn't edit it out. So honest and full of childlike joy!
.... I'm very likely to make this tomorrow.. have to get some more dates, though.
Wonderful recipe!
Best recipe ever! Love it. Gonna make double recipe next time!
I can’t wait to make this for my son (well, and for myself, too!)
That look delicious

Just discovered your site, thank you I’ll be following and looking forward to future videos!
Could it be possible to outline the calories and other nutritional information- would really assist - cheers from Australia 🙏
Oh does look super yum.
Awesome haa awww ❤ 🙏 you seem like such a sweet person
Hi 🌿thanks for your videos 💚are there any possibility of you creating an e-book on your RAW vegan recipies? Would love to have that 🥕🥕
Sorry, no
Looks delicious!!
Oh this looks great!
We love it!! Thank you so much!
Hi, thanks for sharing this. Would definitely give it a try.
Amazing 😍 just in time for Valentines day 💘
Yummm can’t wait to make ❣️
Wow! That looks so so good.... Too good, and yes, I love you. But you are a badass for posting thus. This will evaporate in my house so small batches only!! 😍😍😍
❤️ Thank You ❤️
Just in time for my birthday! Whoop, whoop!
Allergic to almonds. Any possible substitutes for almond meal?
Is there a replacement for almond meal? I’m allergic to almonds
Another wonderful recipe I'm excited to try. Would these hold up in the freezer?
I think so
@@wholefoodplantbasedcookingshow Thanks for your reply! I'll give it a shot!
These look so good!!!
I was looking at the 28 day course--need to ask though--why are so many recipes repeated? There's no indication the banana breads are different from week to week for instance. There's several other examples.
Very nicely priced though.
The course teaches cooking items to use across multiple days. This way you aren’t cooking from scratch for every meal. This is how we cook and eat at home and has proven a successful approach for switching and sticking to a plant based diet without a heaven burden of cooking. If every meal was a new recipe it would be overwhelming for most people. 👍
@@wholefoodplantbasedcookingshow OK, thank you. Very much interested & have it bookmarked.
Can I substitute oatmeal flour for the almond meal?
It might work but I haven’t tried it
It worked with oatmeal flour. This is one delicious recipe and healthy, too. Thank you.
Delicious but mine was dry. I added 2 teaspoon of water. Not sure what I did wrong.
I just watched the video again. I didn't use enough dates. That is why mine was dry. 😊
After I watched the video again, I made this recipe again. WOW!!! Wonderful!!!
Do you need to pre-soak the dates?
Hi dear Jill,
I watch again all your recipes and I just remember I want to do this one since a long time!
Just can you tell me the dimensions of your Silicone Loaf Pan please?
Almond Meal is better than flour which is thinner and not same texture to set well?
Thanks 😉
Henri 🙂
9 x 4 x 2.5. Inches
@@wholefoodplantbasedcookingshow many thanks my dear Jill!
I had an issue with my account and box mail so I had to create new one..
But I fixed the issue and will come back to you with my older account soon!
😉
Looks so amazing!! What brand of peanut butter and cocoa powder do you use? What brand is your food processor?
Hi jill can i subsitute almond butter instead of cashews for the crust?
Yes
Made this AGAIN tonight
Wouldn't it be easier to use date paste?
Thank you so much for this recipe. I have been making it every two weeks. I limit myself to two squares a day.I shared this with a neighbor and she has gained 6 lbs. we have both been at home due to Covid. I think it is because she has n’t been going to the Gym. I work on my Nintendo Wii. for 30 mins just about every day. Neither of us has been to the Gym in out senior community since March.
Do you have an idea of the cal count for this fudge? I am guessing about 100 Calories per square. My peanut butter is homemade without oil. I think we could increase the Almond meal a tad and reduce the Cacao powder.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Very good ji 👌
Love how you have it all over your teeth at the end 😂 delicious thx!
Delicious 🤪 Yummm!!!
Doesn't cocoa have caffeine though?
Yes, but if you are using a normal amount, there is not much caffeine in the end product per-serving. It has theobromine in high ammounts though, which is a stimulant that lowers blood pressure. Only really an issue in high ammounts.
Since it's not cooked, I wonder if you could replace the cocoa with carob powder.
