3 Ingredient Keto Peppermint Fudge
Creamy smooth peppermint fudge that is keto-friendly and low carb. This easy fudge is just 3 ingredients and is a festive fudge to make for the holidays.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups (256 g) sugar-free chocolate chips , see note before starting
- 3 fl oz (89 ml) sugar-free coconut condensed milk
- 1/4 tsp (1 ml) peppermint extract
Instructions
- Line an 8 inch x 4 inch loaf pan with parchment paper leaving some overhang for easy removal later.
- Add chocolate chips and condensed milk to a large microwave safe mixing bowl. Heat in 15-30 second intervals, stirring in between with a spatula until mixture is completely melted and smooth. You can also melt the chocolate mixture on the stove using the double boiler method. Stir in the peppermint extract until evenly mixed.
- Transfer the mixture into your prepared loaf pan. Use your spatula to smooth and even the surface. If desired, you can garnish the surface with a crushed sugar-free peppermint candy.
- Place fudge into the freezer until set (about 1-2 hours). Cut fudge into 1-inch pieces with a sharp knife.
Notes
- This recipe works best with sugar-free chocolate chips sweetened with Stevia or erythritol. Avoid using chocolate sweetened only with monkfruit (like ChocZero). You can make it with a chocolate sweetened with a monkfruit erythritol blend (like Lakanto) and the fudge will be very creamy but will need to be kept in the freezer because it gets a little too soft if left out at room temperature.
- Depending on the chocolate brand, there may be a little bit of crystallization of the chocolate after the fudge sets.
- I made this fudge successfully with Lily's dark chocolate chips,* Whole Food's sugar-free dark chocolate chips* and Lakanto sugar-free chocolate chips* (but Lakanto version is softer and needs to be kept in the freezer).
- I used Nature's charm sugar-free coconut condensed milk.*
