Cashew butter is the closet tasting nut butter to peanut butter.  It has a more mild flavor than almond and is perfect for this treat.  Snacking on nuts and nut products can help keep you full and satiated.  According to an article in the Huffington Post:

Now, a new report published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that adults who incorporate nuts into their diets don’t have to limit their consumption. A review of 31 studies about eating nuts found that people who added nuts to their diets and who replaced other foods with nuts lost more weight (an average 1.4 pounds more) and reduced their waist sizes by more than half an inch.

“Although the magnitude of these effects was modest, the results allay the fear that nut consumption may promote obesity,” wrote the researchers, according to Reuters Health. “Our findings support the inclusion of nuts in healthy diets for cardiovascular prevention.”

Cashews are also high in magnesium. Studies show that magnesium helps diminish the frequency of migraines, improve cognitive ability, and also lowers blood pressure, which can prevent heart attacks.These paleo fudge balls are slightly addictive, but I guess I’d rather have them in the house than the alternative!
