Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Natural peanut butter (or almond butter)
- 0.25 cup Coconut oil
- 0.25 cup Maple syrup (or honey)
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.125 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.5 cup Chopped nuts, shredded coconut, or chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter and coconut oil. Ensure the coconut oil is in liquid form; gently melt it if necessary.
Whisk in the maple syrup (or honey), cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and sea salt until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
If using optional add-ins like chopped nuts, shredded coconut, or chocolate chips, fold them into the mixture now.
Line a small square or rectangular baking dish (8x8 inches or similar) with parchment paper, allowing some overhang to make removal easier.
Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared dish, spreading it evenly to ensure a uniform thickness.
Place the dish in the freezer and let it set for at least 1-2 hours, or until the fudge is firm and solid.
Once set, lift the fudge out of the dish using the parchment paper overhang. Use a sharp knife to cut it into 12-16 squares, depending on desired portion size.
Store the fudge in an airtight container in the freezer. Allow it to sit at room temperature for a minute or two before enjoying.
