Description
Creamy coconut milk elevates this calcium-rich chocolate fudge recipe with powerful nutrients. Wellness seekers can savor each silky square while boosting mineral intake without traditional dairy ingredients.
Ingredients
- 2 avocados
- 1 cup (150g) dried figs, stems removed
- 2 cups (280g) sesame seeds
- 1 cup (140g) almonds
- 1 cup raisins
- 5 tbsps blackstrap molasses
- 4 tbsps cacao or cocoa powder
- 1 tbsp cinnamon
- 4 to 6 tbsps maple syrup or coconut syrup
- 2 tbsps coconut oil (optional)
- 4 tbsps cacao or cocoa powder
Instructions
- Seed Preparation: Pulverize sesame seeds and whole almonds in a food processor, creating a coarse, textured base without fully grinding into a powder.
- Mixture Fusion: Blend dried figs, raisins, robust molasses, rich cacao powder, and warm cinnamon into the processor until ingredients compact into a cohesive mass.
- Base Formation: Transfer the dense mixture into an 8-inch (20-centimeter) square pan, pressing firmly with fingertips or a spatula to distribute evenly and create a uniform layer with consistent thickness.
- Frosting Creation: Combine ripe avocados, preferred sweetener, melted coconut oil, and additional cacao powder in a blender or food processor, processing until smooth and glossy.
- Layer Assembly: Carefully spread the velvety frosting across the fudge base, ensuring complete and even coverage from edge to edge.
- Chilling and Setting: Refrigerate the dessert for 1 to 2 hours, allowing layers to set and flavors to meld together.
- Serving Preparation: Once chilled and firm, slice into neat 1-inch (2.5-centimeter) squares using a sharp knife, wiping the blade between cuts for clean edges. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Notes
- Seed Prep Tip: Coarsely grind nuts and seeds to maintain texture and prevent turning into a fine powder, which could change the fudge’s mouthfeel.
- Binding Secret: Use sticky dried fruits like figs and raisins to help ingredients adhere without dairy, creating a natural, rich binding effect.
- Chilling Technique: Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to ensure proper setting and allow flavors to develop, enhancing the overall taste profile.
- Storage Wisdom: Keep refrigerated in an airtight container, consuming within 3 days for optimal freshness and texture quality.
