I was really wanting something sweet and used to be a chocoholic before my food intolerances popped up. I tweaked a recipe for fudge and came up with this.
1 C raw cashew butter (I made my own with raw cashews, canola oil and my food processor)
1/4 C maple syrup
1/8 C carob powder (unsweetened)
1 tsp vanilla extract
After I got the cashews and oil to a semi-smooth consistency I added my maple syrup which thickened the mixture up somewhat; then I added the carob powder and then the vanilla. I processed it until it was a good mixture-consistency and then I scooped a bit into ramekins style cups; covered, and then placed in the freezer for a few hours. This can be eaten without being frozen but it stores best in the freezer. It honestly has just the right amount of carob in it that I can imagine I'm eating real chocolate fudge. I can't taste the nuts at all -- raw cashews are very mild.
