Containing zero condensed milk or added sugar, this recipe comes together within 10 minutes and requires ingredients that are easily available in the kitchen.
In an Instagram video shared on August 3, 2025, the fitness influencer explains, “You can stop going to Lonavala to eat walnut fudge because this tastes 100 times better and is so much healthier.

But this version is loaded with walnuts and pumpkin seeds and tastes 10 times better than the OG.”
