To make this Chocolate Pecan Fudge, you simply combine everything in a glass bowl, heat for a couple of minutes, pour onto a tray, and refrigerate until firm. I like to sprinkle a few spoonfuls of extra chopped nuts on top of the fudge before refrigerating, too.
Traditional old fashioned fudge recipe. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. In a medium saucepan combine sugar, whole milk, evaporated milk and salt. Heat over medium and stir constantly until sugar dissolves and mixture comes to a boil. Reduce heat to medium low and cook until mixture reaches 240F/116C on a candy thermometer.
Mix in cocoa powder, vanilla, and sea salt. If using chocolate chips, melt in a double boiler or microwave, then beat in. Adjust sweetener and salt to taste. Transfer. Spread the keto fudge mixture into the lined container and smooth the top with a spatula. Top. Sprinkle with flaked salt, if using. Chill.
I’m hoping one day we’ll see fat grams as a good thing on food labels. So, if you are looking for easy treats to make over the holidays, consider making low carb fudge. You’ll be so glad you did.
