PIN IT

How to Make No Bake Vegan Chocolate Fudge

PIN IT

1. Melt the chocolate & coconut cream – In a saucepan (or microwave), gently melt the chocolate chips with coconut cream until smooth and glossy. Stir often to prevent burning.
2. Mix in the flavor – Add almond butter, maple syrup, vanilla, and a pinch of sea salt. Stir until creamy and fully combined.
3. Pour & set – Line an 8×8 baking pan with parchment paper. Pour the mixture in, smoothing the top with a spatula.
4. Chill – Place in the fridge for at least 2 hours (or freezer for 30 minutes if you’re impatient like me!).
5. Slice & enjoy – Cut into squares, savor slowly, or… let’s be honest, try not to eat the whole pan in one sitting.

Pro tip from my Nonna’s kitchen: Always keep a spoon nearby—you’ll want to “taste test” before it sets!

What to Serve with No Bake Vegan Chocolate Fudge

This fudge is dreamy on its own, but here are a few pairings I love:

• A hot mug of coffee or chai latte.
• A scoop of Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream for the ultimate indulgence.
• Paired with Fluffy Vegan Pancakes for a brunch dessert board.
• A festive spread with Protein Cookie Dough and Peanut Butter Energy Balls.

Tips for Making It Perfect

• Low heat only – Don’t scorch the chocolate! Melt slowly for best texture.
• Line your pan – Parchment is your best friend for easy removal.
• Don’t rush setting – Fudge needs time to firm up; give it at least 2 hours.
• Customize toppings – Think walnuts, pecans, coconut flakes, or even espresso powder.

Storage Instructions

• Fridge: Store in an airtight container up to 7 days.
• Freezer: Freeze in layers with parchment paper for up to 2 months.
• Room temp: Lasts about 2 days (but gets softer).

General Information
