Ingredients
- 1 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 0.25 cup Coconut oil
- 0.5 cup Carob powder
- 0.25 cup Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.25 cup Chopped nuts (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Line a small 8x8-inch baking dish or loaf pan with parchment paper, allowing some paper to hang over the sides for easy removal later.
Step 2
In a medium microwave-safe bowl, combine the peanut butter and coconut oil. Heat in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until the mixture is fully melted and smooth.
Step 3
Whisk in the carob powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and sea salt until the mixture is smooth and well-combined.
Step 4
If adding chopped nuts, fold them into the mixture for extra texture.
Step 5
Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared dish, smoothing the top with a spatula to ensure an even layer.
Step 6
Place the dish in the freezer for at least 1 hour, or until the fudge is firm to the touch.
Step 7
Once the fudge has set, remove it from the freezer and use the parchment paper to lift it out of the pan.
Step 8
Slice the fudge into small squares and serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
