Dairy Free Coconut Fudge

IMG_1577.JPG
 Who doesn’t want a little guilt free treat every now and again? I was super impressed at how simple this was to make and how delicious it was.  I didn’t get bloated after eating it or feel sick from all the sugar.  Plus, you get a good amount of coconut oil and all its wonderful health benefits in every bite!

  The downside- you can’t leave this out on a warm day for too long.  The coconut oil melts around 75 degrees so it is best that you store this in the fridge or freezer and not take it to your summer picnic without keeping it in a cooler.

The best part about it? Only 5 ingredients! And I bet you have most of them at home. 

 Ingredients

¾ cup coconut oil, melted

¾ cup cocoa powder

½ cup coconut milk or almond milk

1/3 cup honey or maple syrup

2 tsp vanilla extract

 Instructions

Add all ingredients to a blender or an immersion blender to mix up.

Then line an 8x8 pan with parchment paper before pouring in the mixture.

Place in the fridge or freezer to set.  (It will be done much faster if you place in the freezer.) 

When it is hard, cut into bite sized pieces and enjoy!  Store in the freezer so it doesn’t melt.

It was my favorite when it softened up after being out of the freezer for a little while.  It just melted in your mouth and wasn’t frozen solid.  SO delicious!!
