Chocolate fudge cups with coconut & peanut butter filling

1 Comment

For the chocolate fudge base and top:

4 bars of dark chocolate

1 cup of vegan butter

2 tablespoons of coconut oil

3 tablespoons of maca powder

1 tsp of salt

2 tabespoons of maple syrup

Step 1

Add all of this to a frying pan until the chocolate has melted! Once it has melted, pour half of the chocolate fudge mixture into silicone cupcake holders and place them into the fridge for 30-40 minutes, longer if you have time!

Middle part/filling:

Half a cup of desiccated coconut

Half a cup of peanut butter

1/4 cup of maple syrup or agave

2 tbsp of matcha powder

1/4 cup of almond milk

Step 2

Blend it all until thick and smooth. Place it in the fridge for 15-20 minutes. Only when your chocolate fudge has hardened can you then add this on top…

Step 3

Use the remaining chocolate to pour on top of the coconut and peanut butter mixture! Your are basically layering!

Step 4

Top with pistachios, coconut flakes, maca powder. Whatever you like. Then place them back into the fridge for at least an hour until they have all hardened!

Optional – chocolate icing

I had to add this because I am literally a fan of icing. I’m that person who will eat all the icing and leave the actual cake.

1 cup icing sugar

3 tbsp almond milk

Step 5

If you do have chocolate let over, simply add the icing sugar to it and stir until it becomes thick. Add a bit of almond milk if you have to.

4 Comments

Just typing the name of this is making me crave it. Okay so I made this just before turning completely vegan hence the white chocolate…

INGREDIENTS 

2 large bars of White chocolate

3-4 cups of Desiccated coconut

1/4 cup of maple syrup/Agave nectar

2 large lemons (For juice and zest)

 As many Pistachios as you like (For topping)

2 tbsp of Vegan Butter

1 tbsp of Coconut oil

DIRECTIONS

  1. First thing you want to do is blend the desiccated coconut until it gets really silky and smooth. Set aside.
  2. Put some oil onto a frying pan along with the vegan butter. Once melted, throw in your white chocolate and heat until it melts.
  3. Add the melted white chocolate into the blender with your liquified coconut. Add the lemon juice from your 2 lemons and then the zest – Just grate the skin of the lemon over the blender to make your life easier. Blend it until very smooth and thick.
  4. Evenly pour into a non stick baking tin and top with some pistachios, making sure you flatten the fudge as you go along. Put into a fridge for 30 minutes until it hardens.
