Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups sugar-free dark chocolate (such as Lily's Original Dark Chocolate Bar)
- 3/4 cup natural unsweetened peanut butter
Instructions
- Prepare the melting setup: Use a double boiler by placing a heat-safe bowl over simmering water, making sure the bowl does not touch the water. Alternatively, use a microwave-safe bowl for melting.
- Melt the ingredients: Combine the chocolate and peanut butter in the chosen bowl and gently melt together, stirring continuously until the mixture is smooth and fully combined. If using a microwave, heat in 30-second intervals, stirring between each to avoid burning and ensure even melting.
- Prepare the pan: Line an 8-inch loaf pan with baking paper, making sure the paper extends over the edges for easier removal.
- Pour and smooth: Transfer the melted chocolate and peanut butter mixture into the lined pan. Use a spatula to smooth out the surface evenly.
- Set the fudge: Place the loaf pan in the freezer and allow the fudge to set for at least 30 minutes until firm.
- Serve and store: Once set, remove the fudge from the pan using the baking paper edges, slice it into pieces, and serve chilled. Store any leftovers in the freezer to maintain firmness.
Notes
- Ensure the peanut butter is natural and unsweetened for the best keto-friendly version.
- If you prefer a softer fudge, reduce the freezing time slightly.
- This fudge can be stored in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
- To avoid melting, serve the fudge cold straight from the freezer.
- You can add a pinch of sea salt on top before freezing for a salted chocolate peanut butter variation.
