Ingredients
Fudge Ingredients
- 1 cup Peanut Butter
- ½ cup melted coconut oil
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
- Blend Ingredients: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the peanut butter, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, cinnamon, sea salt, and vanilla extract. Using a hand mixer, blend all the ingredients together until the mixture is smooth and evenly combined.
- Prepare Dish and Spread Mixture: Line a dish with parchment paper, securing the edges with clips if necessary to keep it flat. Pour the blended mixture onto the parchment paper and spread it evenly to form a uniform layer.
- Freeze to Set: Place the dish on a flat surface in the freezer and let it chill for about 15 minutes or until the fudge firms up. Once set, break the fudge into pieces for serving.
- Storage: Store leftover fudge by wrapping it tightly in parchment paper or placing it in a plastic bag. Keep it refrigerated or frozen for later enjoyment.
