Chocolate Fudge in a Jar

By Kathy C.

Found this recipe by Chocolate Covered Katie
**personal notes: I use 1 cup homemade nut butter for this recipe. I have put it in 8x8 dish & cut into squares, but be careful-they melt quickly if left out at room temperature!

Ingredients

• 1 16oz jar roasted almond butter, or allergy-friendly alternative
• 3/4 cup virgin coconut oil (120g)
• 1/2 cup cacao or cocoa powder (20g)
• 1/4 tsp salt (my almond butter was unsalted)
• 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
• 1/4 tsp NuNaturals liquid vanilla stevia, or 3 tbsp sugar of choice

Preparation

Step 1

Start with a jar of room-temperature nut butter. If there is any oil at the top of the nut butter, stir it in until smooth. Now take 2/3 cup nut butter out of the jar and set aside for a different use. (*use approx 1 cup)
Stir the 3/4 cup coconut oil into the jar until smooth. Add the cacao, salt, vanilla, and sweetener, and stir again until completely smooth. Place in the fridge, where it will soon harden into fudge.
