Coco-Cocoa Fantasy Fudge (Clean Eating) image

If you like chocolate, and you like coconut...this is for you! I found this recipe in my Clean Eating Magazine, and had to give it a try! It was super easy to make (only 4 ingredients! Wow!), and tastes wonderful. And the health benefits from eating coconut products make it well worth it, too! It goes well with a glass of red wine, or is a nice treat for the kids. Either way...it was a hit for everyone in our family (young and old).

Time 25m

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1/2 cup coconut butter
1/2 cup raw organic honey (or use a little of each to equal 1/2 cup) or 1/2 cup pure maple syrup (or use a little of each to equal 1/2 cup)
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract (optional)
1/2 cup cacao (no sugar added) or 1/2 cup cocoa powder (no sugar added)

Steps:

  • Using a spoon, blend the coconut butter with the honey or syrup ad mix well. (If the coconut butter is too hard, place it in an ovenproof container and set it in a 250 degree oven for a few minutes until softened).
  • Add the vanilla extract, if desired.
  • Stir in the cacao or cocoa powder. Mix until smooth.
  • Pour into an 8x8 inch pan and refrigerate until firm.
  • Cut into 16 pieces and keep cool (living in Vegas, I found that it will melt if left out too long).
  • NOTE: You can also use this mixture as FROSTING! Simply use it before refrigeration and it will spread easily!
