Ingredients

  • ⅓ cup Peanut butter (crunchy or smooth peanut butter)
  • 20 g Cacao powder
  • 34 g Maple syrup Grade A refined sugar-free
  • 40 g Coconut oil unrefined, organic
  • 28 g Milk powder

Instructions

  • Add melted coconut oil into a bowl.
  • Sift in the cacao powder and milk powder and combine using a spatula.
  • Pour in warm maple syrup and combine.
  • Add the peanut butter and mix to combine.
  • Transfer the chocolate and peanut butter fudge mixture into a small lined freezer-friendly container. Freeze until set (for approximately 2 hours). Cut into small squares, serve and enjoy! Optional - garnish the top of the fudge with chopped peanuts.

Notes

  1. Use dry equipment: make sure equipment is dry when sifting cacao powder and milk powder into the bowl. 
  2. Sift the powders: use a sieve to sift the cacao powder and milk powder (to remove any clumps).
  3. Store in freezer: this recipe is for chocolate peanut butter freezer-fudge. Ensure you keep this fudge in the freezer for the best texture. Note: At room temperature/ in the fridge the fudge will soften (like ice cream!). 
  4. Line container with parchment paper (baking paper or wax paper): make sure the container is lined with parchment paper before adding the chocolate and peanut butter mixture. This helps remove the fudge from the container after it sets. You can also transfer fudge mixture into a small lined baking dish. Loosely cover the prepared pan with cling film/plastic wrap or aluminum foil before tranfering to the freezer
  5. Cut into small squares/pieces: Use a sharp knife to cut fudge into squares. You can adjust size according to preference.
