Servings 1 pan

Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup peanut butter or any nut or seed butter such as almond, sunflower or cashew
  • ½ cup raw cacao
  • 4-6 oz unsweetened baking chocolate
  • 1 cup coconut butter and coconut oil You may add extra coconut oil for a smoother texture, but do not replace coconut butter entirely with coconut oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp sea salt
  • Sweeten to taste If you want it to be complexly sugar free I recommend using stevia. If you choose to use sugar I recommend maple syrup and/or coconut sugar
  • 2 tsp Jahmu

Instructions
 

  • Line a pan with parchment paper or tin foil.
  • Create a double boiler on your stove by filling a pot with about an inch of water and placing a smaller pot or metal bowl inside of it.
  • Bring the water to a boil, then turn the heat to low.
  • Add the coconut butter, coconut oil, and unsweetened chocolate in the small pot.
  • As the coconut butter and chocolate melt stir in the cacao powder, Jahmu, vanilla, sea salt, and sweetener of your choice. If you use stevia remember, less is more!
  • Continue stirring and allow mixture to become liquid, but do not let it boil! Taste it to see if it’s sweet enough for your liking (be careful tasting—it will be hot!). Add more sweetener if you desire.
  • Pour the chocolate onto the parchment paper or tin foil lined pan
  • Add plops of nut butter and spread/swirl them throughout the chocolate.
  • Put the pan of chocolate into the fridge and let it cool for at least 20 minutes.
  • Once it has solidified, you can cut it up into squares. Store the leftover fudge in the fridge.

Notes

**Note: To make the chocolate more liquid, add more coconut oil. To make it more solid, add more chocolate, coconut butter and/or cacao. The chocolate will harden in the fridge but will remain a fudge-like consistency at room temperature.
You can use this base chocolate fudge recipe (without the nut butter) to make other variations, Try adding ingredients such as peppermint, candy canes, nuts, orange peels, caramelized ginger, dried fruit, etc.
