Maple Pecan Delight Fudge
Main Ingredients:
- 2 cups (480 ml) pecan butter or any nut butter of choice
- ½ cup (120 ml) coconut oil
- ¼ cup (60 ml) maple syrup
Instructions
- Prepare a small loaf pan or 8-inch (20 centimeters) square cake pan by lining it completely with parchment paper, allowing extra overhang for effortless fudge extraction after solidification.
- Select a microwave-safe bowl or saucepan to gently melt pecan butter and coconut oil together, stirring carefully to prevent scorching and maintain the natural oils’ smooth consistency.
- Whisk the melted pecan butter and coconut oil mixture until fully incorporated, then gradually introduce pure maple syrup, blending until the texture becomes glossy and homogeneous.
- Transfer the liquid fudge mixture into the prepared pan, using a silicone spatula to spread evenly and create a perfectly smooth surface with consistent thickness.
- Place the pan in the refrigerator and allow the fudge to set for 60 to 90 minutes, or until the mixture becomes completely firm and develops a solid, sliceable consistency.
- Remove the chilled fudge from the refrigerator by lifting the parchment paper edges, then position on a clean cutting surface.
- Using a sharp chef’s knife, slice the fudge block into uniform bite-sized squares, approximately 1-inch (2.5 centimeters) in size, for an elegant and consistent presentation.
Notes
- Parchment Paper Trick: Line your pan completely with parchment paper to effortlessly remove the fudge without any sticky mess or crumbling.
- Gentle Melting Technique: Melt pecan butter and coconut oil slowly to preserve their natural nutrients and prevent burning, which can compromise the smooth texture.
- Syrup Mixing Magic: Stir maple syrup thoroughly into the melted mixture to create a glossy, well-integrated fudge that ensures consistent sweetness in every bite.
- Chilling is Key: Refrigerate the fudge for a minimum of one hour to achieve the perfect firm consistency that holds its shape when sliced.
- Clean Cutting Tip: Use a sharp knife for precise, clean cuts that create beautiful bite-sized pieces, making the fudge visually appealing and easy to enjoy.
- Storage Suggestion: Store the fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week, allowing you to enjoy this delectable treat throughout the week.
