Free Recipe · Real-Food Sweets
A rich, fudgey chocolate slice made from just six real-food ingredients, blitzed smooth in the Thermomix and set in the fridge. Dairy free, gluten free and refined sugar free.
This friendly fudge is made in the Thermomix from just six real-food ingredients, serves 10, and sets in the fridge in about four hours. It is dairy free, gluten free and refined sugar free, so almost everyone can enjoy it.
Why is our fudge friendly? Because it is made with six nutritious, real-food ingredients, no nasties, and almost everyone can enjoy it. It is gluten free, dairy free, refined sugar free, soy free, egg free, vegetarian and vegan (with sincere apologies to anyone with a peanut allergy). It could not be simpler to whip up, it will absolutely cure any chocolate craving, and it freezes perfectly, which makes it a very handy one to keep on hand.
Peanut butter and ripe banana do the heavy lifting here, with coconut oil and a little maple syrup for that melt-in-the-mouth, fudgey set. The machine melts, purees and blends everything silky smooth in a matter of minutes, so there is no fiddly tempering and no baking at all. I hate to say it, but it genuinely tastes too good to be this good for you.
To set it, simply line your square tin with our reusable, naturally non-stick Reusable Square Cake Tin Liner, with no baking paper needed, press in the mixture, smooth the top with the back of a Thermo Spoon Spatula, and let the fridge do the rest. The fudge lifts straight out, ready to cut into neat squares and share.
