Healthy Chocolate Avocado Fudge [Vegan]
Ingredients You Need for Healthy Chocolate Avocado Fudge [Vegan]
- 1 - 3 oz. bar of bittersweet or dark chocolate – 70% or higher, chopped
- *1 ripe Large avocado, de-seeded and pureed
- *1/3 cup of organic full fat coconut milk (canned)
- *1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- *Stevia to taste
- *1/4 teaspoon salt
- *Raw pistachio nuts (chopped) or your choice of nuts – optional
How to Prepare Healthy Chocolate Avocado Fudge [Vegan]
- I used an 8 by 8-inch baking pan. Line the pan with a sheet of parchment paper, with the excess hanging over the sides. Set aside.
- Heat all of the ingredients in a medium glass bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water (making sure the bowl doesn’t touch the water), stirring until the chocolate has completely melted and the mixture is smooth. Add the nuts if using. Stir to incorporate.
- Scrape the mixture with a spatula into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Refrigerate until firm, at least 2 hours. The longer it chills, the firmer it gets. Mine sat overnight and came out best. This is still a soft fudge!
- Use the parchment paper to lift it out of the pan and on to a cutting board. Peel off the parchment paper and cut the fudge into 1-inch pieces. Store refrigerated in an airtight container.

Very, very rich. Definitely have to adjust to the avocado and chocolate flavor combination.
OK will try this
Sounds good! How much Stevia? I\’m not used of this product. I wish someone could tell me more precisely of much is needed in this recipe.
(excuse my English) Thanks!
