Keto Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge Recipe
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 2 hours (chilling time)
Servings: 16 squares
Ingredients:
- 1 cup sugar-free dark chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup natural peanut butter (unsweetened)
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup powdered erythritol (or other keto-friendly sweetener of choice)
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- A pinch of salt
Instructions:
- Line an 8×8 inch (20×20 cm) square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal later.
- In a microwave-safe bowl or using a double boiler, melt the sugar-free dark chocolate chips and coconut oil together. If using a microwave, heat in 20-second intervals, stirring in between until fully melted and smooth.
- Stir in the natural peanut butter, unsweetened cocoa powder, powdered erythritol, pure vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Mix until all ingredients are well combined and the mixture is smooth.
- Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Place the pan in the refrigerator and let it chill for at least 2 hours, or until the fudge is firm and set.
- Once the fudge has set, use the parchment paper overhang to lift it out of the pan. Place it on a cutting board and cut it into 16 equal squares.
- Serve and enjoy your Keto Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge! Any leftovers should be refrigerated in an airtight container
