Quick Tips for Dairy & Nut Free Fudge
Traditional Recipes use milk and cocoa powder. In this recipe, I use coconut cream and chocolate chips. I also used a microwave instead of using a stovetop to make the recipe so it was quick and easier.
Allergen Free Fudge
Here are the substitutions I made for allergens in the recipe to make it allergy friendly:
- Dairy Free: Use Semi-sweet dairy free chocolate chips and coconut cream instead of regular milk and no butter.
- Nut Free: I used WOW butter which gives it a more nutty flavour without the nuts and also acts as a substitute for butter. I also used sunflower seeds to replace the nuts. You can use any other seeds and seed butter, you like.
Why use Coconut Cream
I could have used plant-based milk but plant-based milk is quite thin in consistency than regular milk and since I was not cooking, the milk would not have thickened to the desired consistency. I also could have just used plant-based condensed milk but it was not available so this was the next best thing.
Thick or Thin
To make a thick fudge use a loaf pan to set the fudge as I have used. For a thinner fudge use a baking sheet to set the fudge.
Variations to Elevate Your Dairy & Nut Free Fudge:
Some variations you can make:
- vegan white chocolate fudge with dried fruit and nuts alternatives
- dairy-free caramel swirls in fudge
Storage and Shelf Life of Dairy & Nut Free Fudge:
There are 3 things you can use to store your fudge to make sure your fudge stays fresh and tasty:
- air-tight container
- plastic wrap
- freezer bags
You can store it longer in Refrigerater or Freezer – just let it come to room temperature before eating.
