Ingredients

Chocolate Layer

  • 4 oz 100% Dark Chocolate Bar broken into small pieces
  • 1/4 cup Softened Coconut Butter
  • 3 Tbsp Maple Syrup
  • 3/4 cup Full Fat Coconut Milk

Pumpkin Layer

  • 4 Tbsp Coconut Oil
  • 1 1/2 cup Pumpkin Puree
  • 1/2 cup Softened Coconut Butter
  • 1/2 cup Full Fat Coconut Milk
  • 1/4 cup Coconut Sugar
  • 1 Tbsp Maple Syrup
  • 2 tsp Pumpkin Spice
  • 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract

Topping

  • 1 Tbsp Cacao Nibs

Instructions

  • Line a 9x9 baking dish with 2 pieces of parchment paper, running the pieces up all four sides of the dish to allow for easy removal of the fudge later. You can lightly grease the baking dish with coconut oil so that the parchment paper sticks to the dish.
  • In a double boiler over medium-low heat, melt the dark chocolate bar and coconut butter. Once it begins to melt, stir constantly to prevent from burning.
  • When the chocolate and coconut butter have fully melted, remove from heat.
  • Carefully stir in the maple syrup and coconut milk.
  • Pour into the prepared 9x9 dish and smooth it out into an even layer. Let chill in the freezer until set, about 20 minutes.
  • In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, combine all the pumpkin layer ingredients, except the vanilla extract, and stir slowly until smooth.
  • Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
  • Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
  • Remove the baking dish from the freezer. Pour the pumpkin mixture over the top of the chocolate layer and spread out in an even layer. Sprinkle the cacao nibs over the top.
  • Place the baking dish back into the freezer and chill for 1 to 2 hours. The fudge is set when the pumpkin layer has a little give to it when you lightly touch it with your finger.
  • To remove the fudge from the baking dish, pull up on each side of the bottom piece of parchment paper. Cut into squares and serve, or keep in the fridge in an airtight container.

Notes

These will soften quite a bit if they're left out at room temperature. I recommend removing them from the refrigerator right before serving.
