Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened almond butter
- 0.5 cup Coconut oil
- 0.33 cup Powdered erythritol (or other low-carb sweetener)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.25 cup Chopped nuts (optional, e.g., pecans, walnuts, or almonds)
Instructions
Prepare an 8x8-inch square baking dish by lining it with parchment paper, leaving enough overhang for easy removal later.
In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the coconut oil and almond butter. Stir gently until fully melted and smooth.
Add the unsweetened cocoa powder and powdered erythritol to the saucepan. Stir continuously until the mixture is smooth and the sweetener is fully dissolved. This will take about 2-3 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and sea salt until well incorporated.
If you’re using chopped nuts, fold them into the fudge mixture at this point.
Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish. Use a spatula to spread it evenly and smooth the top.
Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2 hours, or until it is firm and set.
Once the fudge is set, lift it out of the dish using the overhanging parchment paper. Cut the fudge into 12 squares or your desired portion size.
Store the fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
