Weekend Treat: Gluten-free Vegan Chocolate Fudge with Cashews, Roasted Almonds and Goji Berries. πŸŒ±πŸ«πŸ˜‹β€οΈπŸŒΊ

β€’17 Replies

Good morning everyone, hope you have a relaxing Sunday and nourish yourselves with wholesome food and little nice treats! πŸ€—

Last night, I was browsing for chocolate gift box since the holidays are coming around and there are many places offer many delicious vegan chocolates but gluten free is not one of them. Therefore, I decided to have a trial of making them and the gift wrapping will come after as I can find many cute boxes to spread vegan love this holiday! 🌱😊❀️

Recipe to make parchment paper lined 8x8 pan :

1. Soak 1.5 cup of raw cashews for few hours. (Hot water will speed up the process).

2. Roast 1 cup of almonds and chop roughly.

3. Blend in a high speed mixer: soaked cashews, 1/2 cup of maple syrup, 1/2 cup of cacao powder with melted 1/3 cup of cacao butter.

4. Mix the content with chopped almonds and garnish with more roasted almonds and goji berries on top.

5. Leave in the fridge overnight or freezer for 20 mins and ready to cut and serve.😁

These are so delicious with a nice cup of tea. πŸ˜‹πŸ‘

As always, be inspired, be joyful, take a picture and Enjoy it! πŸ˜‹β€οΈ

Wow! they look amazing Koko, what a lovely treat/gift for the holidays (If they last that long) 😁

Awe thank you Debs very much! πŸ€—πŸ™

They are pure 100 vegan cacao and butter, absolutely savory to enjoy at any moment when we homemade them. πŸ˜‹πŸ‘

They will last for few weeks in the fridge, there is no milk so spoilage can slow down. What I need is include a little note date of making and please keep in a tight lid container in the fridge. 😁

Enjoy your Sunday Debs with beautiful nature always! πŸ˜‡β€οΈ

Thank you Happyman4 very much! πŸ€—πŸ™

There are many regular recipes for chocolate fudge, and they have different types of fillings too. I love how it melts in my mouth the chocolate part, mixed nuts and dried fruits make it fun. πŸ˜πŸ‘

I’m sure your kids will love it when you make it. Hmm Which flavor do you like to make? πŸ˜‹

Are you heading to the market now for beginning of the week meals? 😁

Awesome treat! Definitely brings on the chocolate cravings πŸ˜†

in reply to Kainan

Oh boy Kainan πŸ˜‚. Okay I think for your craving, choose at least 70 percent cacao chocolate is alright. πŸ˜πŸ‘

I don’t think I got that one. I got the Hershey’s with almonds. I did look for it

in reply to Kainan

You didn’t look hard enough I think. Hershey is a no no for me. πŸ˜‚ This doesn’t require baking, just blending, I think you can make this yourself in your free time. πŸ˜πŸ‘

I understand, hope you keeping warm and relax. Lemon grass and pandan tea will do you great. Your wife is so lovely and she will cook beautifully for you. πŸ˜‡

Have you had rice steam roll with mushrooms and veggies inside dipped with soy sauce? I think I’ll make it some time next week. πŸ˜‹πŸ‘

I’m sure you had many experiences with Dim Sum and they serve rice steamed rolls for breakfast there with different types of fillings. Enjoy your tea Happyman4! πŸ˜‡πŸ‘

Wow Koko chocolate fudge looks just so amazing, I’d love some. 😁
