Ingredients (Chocolate)
1/2 cup coconut butter or Homemade Coconut Butter. (120g)
1 large, very-ripe banana (160g) (For a banana-free version, just use 2/3 cup more coconut butter.)
1/2 tsp cinnamon (optional)
scant 1/8 tsp salt
sweetener of choice, to taste (Sweeteners that work well in this recipe include: nunaturals vanilla stevia drops, powdered sugar, or even a liquid sweetener such as pure maple syrup. If a using a super-ripe banana, you might not need any added sweetener, depending on your tastebuds.)
1/4 cup unsweetened or dutch cocoa powder or cacao powder (20g)
optional: 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
Directions
1. Make sure your coconut butter is melted before use.
2. Combine all ingredients in a food processor.
3. Smooth the fudge into a container or candy molds. (Plastic containers work well, because you can pop the fudge right out.)
4. Place in the fridge for a few hours, or freeze for a few minutes. You can freeze it for longer periods of time; just be sure to thaw at least 15-20 minutes prior to eating.
