Hold on to your taste buds, NOMsters, because, oh baby, do I have THE treat for you!!
No sugar added, no bake, four-ingredient, all-natural fudge!
That’s right. You heard me.
This recipe is so incredibly simple, and yet so incredibly yummy — you just gotta taste it to believe it!
Plus, if you’re someone who isn’t the biggest fan of avocados (no judgement here — I used to be one of you!), this is an extra-delicious way to get all of their amazing health benefits without the taste!
Seriously, much like our Avocado Chocolate Pudding, you truly can’t taste the avocado at all. All you taste is rich, dark chocolaty goodness!! In fact, the hubby had no idea avocados were even in it…until I told him, of course.
So, what are you waiting for?? Go ahead and indulge yourself in this rich, nutritious treat!
Raw Dark Chocolate Avocado Fudge
Ingredients:
- Chocolate chips (100% unsweetened cacao) - 10 oz., melted
- Avocados - 2, peeled and pitted
- Vanilla extract (pure) - 1 tsp.
- Peppermint extract (pure) - 1 tsp. (optional—we used it because I’m completely obsessed with all things mint chocolate)
- dates - 15, pitted and soaked (add more if you have a big sweet tooth…keep in mind that I like extra dark chocolate!)
Instructions:
Combine all of the ingredients in a high-power blender (I <3 my Vitamix!) or food processor. Process until smooth.
Feel free to experiment, and fold in your own favorite ingredients — chopped nuts, cacao nibs, you name it!
Spread the mixture evenly in a medium-sized loaf pan. Freeze for about an hour.
Remove the pan from the freezer. Cut into thick, fudgey cubes of goodness!
Nom away!!
OH, and be sure to refrigerate any leftovers…if you have any, that is. 😉
