Dazzle at your next dinner party - HONEY CHOCOLATE FUDGE TRUFFLES

A divinely sweet treat for yourself, your next dinner party or wrapped in some pretty waxed paper for a special homemade gift! These little beauties are seriously more-ish and SO easy to make!

So, let me start by telling you this fudge is amazing! This was initially created for a client to develop a sweet recipe utilising their honey product. 

At first I was dubious as fudge in general is sweet but mixed with honey, I guessed it would be too tart...I was wrong. By adding peanut butter as your main savoury fat, it's cut the severe sweetness, instead creating a moreish, delicious finger licking good treat!

Ok, let's begin!
​
The fudge itself doesn't take long - it's the beating that you really have to work on! I mean that truthfully - you have to beat the living be-jesus outta this, but it is WORTH IT!

Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook/beating time: 15 minutes
Total time: 25 minutes 

Ingredients:
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup of crunchy peanut butter
1/4 cup coconut milk
2 tablespoons Egmont honey
½ cup cocoa powder
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch salt
1/3 cup coconut chips
1/3 cup sliced almonds
 
Toppings:
Sprinkle freeze dried raspberries
Coconut chips
Pumpkin seeds

Instructions:

• Brush an 8X8 baking tin with a little olive oil.
• Put sugar and milk in a small pot and bring to a boil.
• Boil for 3 minutes, stirring often and turn the heat off.
• Slowly add peanut butter and honey and stir well. Add vanilla extract and stir until the ingredient are mixed.
• Beat the mixture HARD off the heat for about 10-15 minutes and the gloss starts to turn to matte (very important to beat well as it will not set otherwise). Add the remaining coconut chips, pumpkin seeds and any other ingredient you would like in your fudge.
• Pour mixture into the greased baking tin.
• Sprinkle the fudge with freeze dried raspberries and the remaining chopped coconut & pumpkin seeds, pushing them gently into the fudge with the back of a spatula.
• Refrigerate for at least 6 hours – if you can, refrigerate overnight for a harder texture.

Keep the fudge refrigerated, these make for the perfect gift or pot luck dinner dish. They are simply more-ish and so easy!
