Healthy Fats Fudge
The politcally correct way to get your butter fix (or coconut oil!)
Ingredients
- 1 cup soft butter or coconut oil
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder Pull out the good stuff like raw cacao if you can!
- ½ cup honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup nut butter optional
- Toppings/add ins like shredded coconut, dried fruit, nuts
Instructions
- Measure your butter/coconut oil, cocoa, honey/maple syrup, salt, vanilla and optional nut butter together in the bowl of a stand mixer or use an electric hand mixer to mix it all up. You can do it by hand, but cocoa powder can be stubborn.
- If you want to mix things into the fudge, add em in.
- Line a pie plate or loaf pan with parchment, wax paper or foil.
- Scoop your fudge in and smooth it down.
- My favourite time to add things into the fudge is at this point, press them into the top of the fudge.
- Chill in freezer at least an hour, until firm, or if youre patient, in the fridge for more hours.
- When ready to eat, cut it up up into 1 inch squares, and move to a container with a lid or cover the pan with foil/plastic wrap.
- Store in the fridge or freezer and enjoy!
