Sugar-free super fudge
Decadent dessert fudge without sugar? It sounds too good to be true, but with this recipe from Carolyn Hartz's Sugar Free Baking cookbook it’s a reality.
Makes: 25
Ingredients:
- 100g cacao powder or good quality cocoa
- 150g cacao butter, melted
- 120g natural sweetener
- Pinch of salt
- 40g chia seeds
- 40g dried goji berries
- 30g pepitas
- 20g shredded coconut
- 30g sunflower seeds
Method:
- Line a 20cm square cake pan or a 25cm × 7.5cm cake pan with baking paper, leaving the edges overhanging for easy removal.
- Place cacao butter in a heat-proof bowl, large enough to sit on the rim of the saucepan, without touching the water. Stir constantly until all of the cacao butter is melted.
- With a wooden spoon, stir the cacao, melted cacao butter, xylitol and salt until smooth in a medium bowl. Add the remaining ingredients and stir until well combined.
- Pour mixture into the prepared pan and refrigerate until set.
- Cut into squares or slices. Store in fridge.
Mmm, don’t you love fudge.
