Directions

Step 1

Line an 8x8 inch square baking dish with parchment paper, leaving extra paper hanging over the sides for easy removal later.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the coconut cream and coconut oil. Stir occasionally until the coconut oil is completely melted.

Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.

Add the vegan dark chocolate chips to the mixture, allowing them to sit for a minute to soften, then stir until completely melted and smooth.

Step 6

If using, fold in the chopped nuts to the mixture.

Step 7

Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

Step 8

Chill the fudge in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until it's firm and set.

Step 9

Once the fudge is set, lift it out of the baking dish using the parchment paper edges and cut it into squares.

Step 10

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
