Recipe: Raw Chocolate Maple and Pecan Fudge
Makes roughly 20 squares
The classic combination of Maple and Pecan tastes like heaven in this silky smooth raw chocolate fudge. I added Lucuma for a touch extra sweetness and to ramp up the levels of iron and calcium, but its not essential.
Raw Chocolate Maple and Pecan Fudge Ingredients:
- 1 cup pecans, roughly chopped
- ½ cup pecan butter (best when home made!)
- ½ cup coconut butter
- ½ cup raw cacao powder
- 100ml maple syrup (adjust to taste)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp lucuma powder (optional)
Raw Chocolate Maple and Pecan Fudge Ingredients:
1) With a fork, combine the pecan butter and coconut butter. If you don’t have coconut butter available, I guess coconut oil would work just as well, however you may want to use a little less.
2) Whisk in the cacao powder until smooth. Add the maple syrup, vanilla, and lucuma if using, and whisk well until thoroughly combined. Stir in the chopped pecans.
3) Line a baking tray with some parchment paper. Pour the mixture out evenly, then transfer to the freezer for an hour or so. When completely set, remove, leave for 10 minutes at room temperature, then fall in love.
