Chocolate Peppermint Freezer Fudge
You’ll love this recipe for melt in your mouth Chocolate Peppermint Freezer Fudge! It’s low carb, vegan, & the perfect treat to stash away in your freezer!

Y’all know I love no bake desserts. I love the whisk it and set it and chill it and eat it treats. There’s simple, not too messy, and right when you almost forget there’s something special no-baking in your freezer, it’s done and you get to bite into it.

Since we’re in the throws of the holidays and new years, you may need a little treat stashed away in your freezer for when an unexpected guest pops by to say hi. Or maybe you need a little treat stashed away in your freezer for when all the guests leave and you just need a minute to recharge.

Chocolate Peppermint Freezer Fudge

Either way, I’m pretty sure I’ve never been mad there’s a treat stashed away in my freezer and am fairly certain it’s always a good idea. So, while you’re already reading this and while I have your attention, you should probably just whip up a batch of these chocolatey, melt in your mouth fudge squares.

If you love freezer fudge and keto cups as much as me, you have GOT to try these chocolate keto cups, this chocolate fudge, these peanut butter fat bombs, and this chocolate tahini fudge. Mmm mmm mm so freaking delish.

Chocolate Peppermint Freezer Fudge

So, let’s jump into the recipe and make these delicious little nuggets of chocolatey joy. Melt the coconut oil in a medium bowl in the microwave for 30 seconds. Whisk until smooth. Add the cashew butter, agave nectar, cocoa, salt, and peppermint. Whisk until combined.

Line an 8×8 inch square pan with parchment paper and pour the chocolate fudge into it. Place the fudge in the freezer for 4+ hours to set. After 20 minutes or so, sprinkle with crushed candy canes if desired.

When ready to eat, slide a knife around the edges and pull up the edges of the parchment paper. Place on a cutting board and cut into 16 squares. Store in the freezer!

    I don’t know why I decided that I needed to add these to my freezer that is already full of Christmas baking… but I’m SO glad I did! They are my new snack obsession. Love the flavour combo!

    I tried to make the fudge and it was delcious but came out very think more like a chocolate bark. Any suggestions?

      Hm interesting! Did you use a small pan or a large pan. I feel like it would spread out more like bark in a large pan. The texture should be similar to a fat bomb or keto cup, if that makes sense!
