Ingredients

  • 5 ounces sugar free semi-sweet chocolate chips or bar, finely chopped
  • 1 cup Keto/Low Carb Sweetened Condensed Milk
  • 1 cup mascarpone cheese  softened
  • 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut divided
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • ¼ cup monk fruit/allulose
  • ¼ cup butter softened
  • ⅓ cup almonds chopped
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon coconut extract

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 325°F. Spread out chopped almonds on a baking sheet and toast in the oven for 5 minutes or until just slightly golden.  Remove and allow to cool.  Add the ¾ cup of the shredded coconut to a mini chopped and process until finely shredded.
  2. In a medium saucepan over low heat, add in the chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, heavy cream, butter, sweetener, ¾ cup of the shredded coconut.  Stirring constantly, melt the chocolate, butter and mascarpone cheese.  Once melted and well combined, remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla and coconut extracts.
  3. Pour the mixture into a 8" x 8" glass baking dish that is lined with parchment paper (for easy removal).  Pour the chopped almonds and remaining ¼ cup of the shredded coconut over the top and allow to chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight, until fully set.
  4. Cut into small squares and serve!  Store leftovers in the fridge for a few days or in the freezer.

Notes

  • This is not a super dense or rich fudge.  It has the perfect balance of sweetness and great texture from the creamy chocolate and the crunchy almonds.
