    cups of chocolate fudge

    An easy 2 ingredient chocolate fudge ready in under 30 minutes, a creamy fudge treat that is high in protein, dairy free, and easy to make in a mold or make in cupcake pans.

    chocolate fudge cups

    This easy 2 ingredient chocolate fudge recipe is the best dessert to find in your freezer, especially when it is made with healthier ingredients. The texture is similar to the melt-in-your-mouth fudge you get when you make it the traditional way with cream and chocolate, but this fudge is dairy free, and full of healthy fats.

    Like most of my chocolate recipes, this is a no bake and no cook recipe, unless you count melting the chocolate for a minute in the microwave. And if you like this fudge, you'll love my cookie dough fudge and my chocolate peanut butter fudge, both made just as easily as this fudge recipe but with twists.

    Why You'll Love This Recipe

    If you've ever had fudge shop fudge, this tastes just like it! Only you'll feel great after eating it because it's super high in protein and will actually make you feel full. Depending on the chocolate you use

    Ingredients

    fudge ingredients labeled.

    Chocolate Chips. Use dark or milk chocolate. Or even break up your favorite chocolate bar, that's just harder to measure.

    Peanut butter. I used peanut butter but any nut butter will do just be sure it's the type with only nuts and oil in the ingredients, no added sugar.

    See the recipe card at the bottom for full information on ingredients and quantities.

    pouring fudge into a piping bag.

    Step 2. Stir and microwave again for 15 seconds. It should be all melted but if not repeat.

    Step 3. Pour the mixture into molds or in a loaf pan. If you prefer pouring into a loaf pan, don't worry if it doesn't reach the edges. Letting it form a flat oval replicates a fudge shop slab.

    Step 4. Chill the mold or pan in the refrigerator until they are firm. Dollop on a teaspoon of melted chocolate chips on cold cups, sprinkle with crushed cookie or sprinkles.

    How to Store

    Variations
