Fudge Ingredients
- 6 ounces sweetened condensed coconut milk
- 6 ounces dark chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Heat the coconut milk: Place the sweetened condensed coconut milk in a small saucepan over medium heat and warm it gently until it begins to shimmer, making sure it doesn’t boil.
- Melt the chocolate: Add the dark chocolate chips to the warm coconut milk and whisk continuously until the chocolate is fully melted and the mixture is smooth and glossy.
- Add vanilla: Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract to infuse the fudge with a rich aromatic flavor.
- Pour into molds: Immediately pour the fudge mixture into silicone molds or a lined bread pan for easy removal once set.
- Refrigerate until set: Place the molds or pan in the refrigerator for about 1 hour to allow the fudge to firm up.
- Cut and serve: Once set, remove the fudge from molds or pan and slice into 1-inch squares. Serve immediately or store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge.
Notes
- Nutritional data is based on using Swerve in the sweetened condensed coconut milk and stevia-sweetened chocolate chips to reduce sugar content.
- You can use any dairy-free dark chocolate chips; ensure they are compatible with your dietary preferences if needed.
- For easy removal, silicone molds are recommended but a lined bread pan works well too.
- Store leftover fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
