If you use a granulated low carb sweetener it won’t dissolve enough and your low carb fudge will taste gritty. So I highly recommend not using it. Instead, I use powdered Swerve. It works just like regular powdered sugar and will dissolve so you won’t have any sugar granules in your homemade fudge.
It’s less sugar but still has sugar. The Baker’s Unsweetened Chocolate is 100% cacao and doesn’t have any sugar added at all. It’s common in most grocery stores and it’s not too expensive at all, especially when you can get it on sale. I just bought two 4oz bars for $4.99 and it’s perfect for making a sugar-free keto fudge.
It works just like regular powdered sugar and dissolves into the chocolate without it tasting gritty. Heavy Cream – This helps your fudge get nice and creamy. I found that using 8 oz of chocolate, ¾ cup of heavy cream was the perfect amount. But add more or less based on your desired texture.
The sour cream imparts a subtle flavor and lush texture. Using all almond flour keeps the recipe simple. As you know, my low carb sweetener of choice is Sukrin :1, which is a 1:1 natural sugar replacement. It has zero calories or carbs and measures like sugar.
