Vegan Frozen Hot Chocolate Fudge

When chocolate bark meets blended frozen hot chocolate, you have a hit — everyone will love this indulgent treat! They won't even know it doesn't contain refined sugars or dairy. Our little secret. 🤫

Buying bulk nuts, seeds, and grains is a great way to shop. I used to take a bunch of glass jars to the store, but now I'm a convert to Stasher bags! They're much lighter (not to mention unbreakable) and so convenient for keeping food fresh. I also love that Stasher bags are great for freezing — they don’t stick together and are so easy to transport (holiday parties, I’m looking at you).

Dairy-Free Frozen Hot Chocolate Fudge Recipe

INGREDIENTS:

• 1/3 cup cacao powder
• 1/2 cup coconut oil
• 1 can of full-fat coconut milk (solids only)
• bulk-bought nuts or seeds (I used pumpkin seeds, puffed quinoa, and walnuts)
• 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Prepare a room temperature baking sheet with a piece of parchment paper. *Pro tip: spray or melt some coconut oil on the pan and then place the parchment paper on top, this keeps it from moving*
2. In a small non-stick saucepan, heat the coconut oil over low heat until liquefied.
3. Add cacao powder, coconut milk solids, and sweetener, stirring slowly until dissolved.
4. Turn off heat.
5. Pour mixture onto the parchment-lined baking sheet.
6. Lightly sprinkle nut and seed mixture on top.
7. Pop into the freezer for at least 1 hour or overnight.
8. Pull solid pan out of the freezer.
9. Quickly (because it will melt) section off fudge with a knife into 8 large slices.
10. Break into smaller pieces and store in a stasher bag in the freezer until ready to eat.
