You will love this healthy vegan chocolate fudge! It is delicious, healthy, and requires no cooking!
I always keep a batch in the freezer because this is a great pre or post workout snack. It is almost like an energy bar! It has the right amount of calories coming from the maple syrup and healthy fats from the coconut oil and peanut butter, so a little bit goes a long way!
Keep in the freezer as it will melt. And if you have a sugar tooth as I do, hide it all the way in the back!
Healthy Vegan Chocolate Fudge
For this recipe, I used peanut butter, but you can make it with any other seed or nut butter. Almond and cashew butter are great!
There are many ways to enjoy this delightful vegan fudge. Try it on top of ice cream, adding to your oatmeal, topping a chocolate mousse, or pie. I even put it on top of waffles or pancakes! It melts right away and adds this creamy chocolatey flavor.
Another thing I often do is to add nuts or rice crisps to the recipe before it goes in the freezer. There are many options for add-ons, and I am sure all of them will work amazingly!
