Easy Low-Carb Coconut Oil Chocolate Fudge - 1g Net Carb

This easy coconut oil chocolate fudge has just four ingredients and takes about 10 minutes to make. No complicated candy-making required!

I originally made this when I was eating low-carb and wanted a simple homemade chocolate treat. It's made with cocoa powder, coconut oil, vanilla, and a little coconut palm sugar, and my original recipe worked out to approximately 1g net carbs per piece.

The hardest part may be getting it into the freezer without spilling it everywhere. Ask me how I know. 😂

Recipe details

Prep Time: About 5 minutes

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup cocoa powder
• 1/4 cup coconut oil
• 2 tbsp coconut palm sugar (or your preferred sweetener)
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Preparation:

Place the coconut oil in a microwave-safe container and microwave for approximately 30 seconds, or until melted.

Add the cocoa powder, coconut palm sugar, and vanilla. Stir until thoroughly combined.

Place the container in the freezer for approximately 10 minutes, or until the mixture is firm.

Remove and cut or break into approximately 30 small pieces.

Store the fudge in the refrigerator or freezer, since coconut oil softens at warmer temperatures.

THE PRETTY WAY... AND THE EASY WAY 😂

For the photo on this post, I decided to pour my fudge into a candy mold, so I'd have beautiful little individual chocolates.

They were beautiful.

I also managed to spill the chocolate on the counter, on the floor, and inside my freezer.

After that experiment, I decided the easiest method was to mix everything right in a small square container, freeze it, and cut or break the fudge into pieces afterward. They won't be quite as pretty, but your kitchen may survive.
