Description
No-bake chocolate almond butter fudge bars with a rich, fudgy texture made from coconut butter, almond butter, maple syrup, and dark chocolate. Naturally vegan and gluten-free, these bars are perfect as a quick dessert or energy-boosting snack.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup coconut butter, melted
- 1/2 cup creamy almond butter (unsweetened, natural)
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- Pinch of salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate or dairy-free chocolate chips
Instructions
- Gently melt coconut butter over low heat until smooth.
- Stir in almond butter, maple syrup, salt, and cinnamon until fully combined.
- Line a 9×5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
- Pour two-thirds of the mixture into the pan and spread evenly. Chill 15–20 minutes if needed to firm slightly.
- Add dark chocolate to the remaining mixture and melt gently until smooth.
- Spread chocolate mixture over the base layer evenly.
- Refrigerate at least 1 hour until firm.
- Lift out using parchment, slice into bars, and serve chilled.
Notes
- Keep bars chilled for best texture; they soften at room temperature.
- Swap almond butter with sunflower seed butter or tahini for nut-free option.
- Add chopped nuts or shredded coconut for extra texture.
- Sprinkle sea salt or drizzle extra chocolate on top before chilling.
- Recipe can easily be doubled and made in an 8×8-inch pan.
