Wahls Fudge

Wahls Fudge tastes like an indulgent, sweet treat, but it’s much more nutritionally dense than candy, pastries, or other sweet desserts. In my house, Wahls Fudge makes any day feel like a holiday! Wahls Fudge is calorically dense, so it’s excellent for those who are losing too much weight. If you are trying to lose weight, enjoy it sparingly.
Makes 20 servings
- 1 cup coconut oil
- 1 medium avocado, pitted and peeled
- 1 cup raisins
- ½ cup dried unsweetened coconut
- 1 teaspoon unsweetened cocoa powder
Directions
Combine all the ingredients in a food processor. Process until smooth, then press the mixture into an 8 x 8-inch glass baking dish and refrigerate or place in a freezer for 30 minutes to firm up the fudge. Cut into 20 squares and enjoy. I usually store it in the refrigerator so it stays firm. The fudge keeps for about three days, but it rarely lasts that long.
White Chocolate Variation: The avocado is optional for this variation. Omit the cocoa powder. Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract or ¼ teaspoon of vanilla bean seeds. Swap raisins for golden raisins.
