Line an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal.
In a food processor, combine almond flour, cocoa powder, pitted dates, and shredded coconut. Pulse until the mixture starts to come together.
Add the melted coconut oil, honey, vanilla extract, sea salt, and coconut milk to the food processor. Blend until the mixture is completely combined and smooth.
If using, add chopped nuts and pulse a few times to evenly distribute.
Transfer the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish. Use a spatula or the back of a spoon to press it evenly into the dish.
Refrigerate for about 1 hour or until the fudge is firm.
Once set, lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang and cut into bars or squares.
Store the fudge bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week or freeze for longer storage.
