I am loving all these great healthy recipes I am finding. I recently saw this amazing Coconut Oil Fudge recipe on Pinterest, so we decided to make it just to see what it tastes like. It is like eating a healthy almond joy candy bar.
This is so good and super healthy for you. If you get a chocolate craving and don't want to eat pieces laden with lots of sugar and such, then you need to make this — pronto.
It takes about half an hour to make this and then you have this plate of fudgy chocolate pieces made with coconut oil, dark chocolate chips, honey, walnuts, and cocoa powder in front of my face.
Then, in just a split second later, they were in my mouth, and it makes me a very happy camper.
Coconut Oil Fudge
Coconut Oil Fudge
Ingredients
- ½ cup melted coconut oil
- ¼ cup honey or maple syrup
- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
- Dark chocolate chips for garnish
- Pinch of salt
- Unsweetened shredded coconut, for garnish (optional)
- Chopped Walnuts, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Using silicone cupcake holders, place them in a muffin tin and set aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the coconut oil, honey or maple syrup, cocoa powder, vanilla, and salt until very smooth.
- Pour mixture into each cupcake holder. We only fill it about 1/4 of the way full.
- Then sprinkle the shredded coconut on top, as well as chopped walnuts, and dark chocolate chips. Refrigerate it for about an hour.
- Be sure to keep them refrigerated.

My son is allergic to dairy, and I thought fudge was something he couldn’t eat. But it looks like this recipe will work if I pick dairy free chocolate chips. He will love it, thanks for the recipe!

YUM! YUM and More YUM! I love that you added maple syrup, that gives it an even better taste. Looking to make this recipe this weekend that I will have a bit more time in the kitchen!

I just bought coconut oil for the first time. I have been looking at recipes to try with coconut oil. I was a little worried that it’s gonna taste really a lot like coconut and my son does not like that, but so far so good.

Oh my! I have to try these. One of my personal goals is to eat healthier this year so this fits right in. I’ve been wanting some good candy to snack on lately, too, but have been avoiding the temptation.
