How to Prepare Açaí, Vanilla, and Almond Butter Fudge [Vegan, Gluten-Free]
To Make the Bottom Layer:
- Melt the cacao butter gently in a bowl over a saucepan of simmering water (double boiler).
- Remove it from the heat and stir in the remaining ingredients. Keep the bowl on top of the saucepan to make sure it doesn't set too quickly
- Evenly distribute the mixture into silicone molds, or into a baking dish lined with parchment paper.
- Place the mixture into the freezer to set while you prepare the next layer.
To Make the Middle Layer:
- Melt the cacao butter over a double boiler.
- Meanwhile take the remaining ingredients, except the acai powder, add them to your blender, and process until they're completely smooth and creamy (about 2 minutes).
- Add the oil/cacao butter to the mixture and blend them again to combine everything.
- Split the mixture into 2 parts. Add the açaí powder to one-half and blend to it combine.
- Remove the fudge from the freezer and distribute the white cream mixture on top of it.
- Tap the tray down against the counter to remove any air bubbles. Place it back into the freezer for at least 30 minutes.
- Remove the tray from freezer and make sure that the mixture has set slightly. Add the açaí layer and refreeze for 4 hours or preferably overnight.
- At this point, you can hold back some of the acai mixture to decorate the chocolate layer if you want.
For the Topping:
- Melt the cacao butter. Add the maple syrup and vanilla bean paste and continue to stir this gently until smooth. Split the mixture into two parts.
- Remove the fudge from the freezer and drizzle the first half of the chocolate mixture on top. Put back into the freezer to let it harden slightly.
- Add the teaspoon of acai powder to the second part and stir it until it's completely mixed.
- Drizzle this over the fudge so that you get the white/purple effect of both parts.
- Remove the bars from the molds and cut them into cubes. Store in the freezer.
