This melt-in-your-mouth, LOW CARB Freezer Fudge has all the deliciousness of a Reese’s peanut butter cup, but none of the sugar or junk. Just 6 real-food ingredients that come together in a snap.(Keto, Low-Carb, Dairy-Free, Sugar-Free & Vegan)
So incredibly rich and CREAMY. Smooth, soft and LUXURIOUS. It literally melts in your mouth.
The BEST flavor combo.. dare I say EVER?? Creamy peanut butter & chocolate… but so much healthier than conventional chocolate.
I’m in shock here… Healthy fudge? Count me in!
Minute Man
These scrumptious little bites take just MINUTES to put together. Less than 10 minutes from start to finish. Because sometimes you don’t have hours to spend on a recipe!
Simply melt together a few ingredients — mainly unsweetened chocolate, peanut butter, coconut oil – on your stovetop. (A microwave is not recommended for this type of chocolate since it tends to seize/harden/get funky)
I don’t have a double boiler, so I just put a glass bowl on a pot of boiling water. It works great! And saves space in my kitchen.
Then pour into silicone molds or a small dish (don’t forget the parchment!), and freeze.
This recipe makes a small batch, but feel free to double it, if you’re feeding a crowd (or if you’re a pb chocoholic, like me) 😉
Customizable Deliciousness
Sweeten with my favorite zero-calorie, all natural sweetener: Sweet Leaf Vanilla Creme Stevia Drops.
It just takes a few drops to create all the sweetness you need without the carbs! Can I get a hallelujah?!
NO added sugar. I STILL can’t believe it myself! You control the amount of sweetness to fit YOUR exact tastes! Customizable chocolate FTW.
Fudge Babies
Slice these babies into 1″ squares, or make them big. However you want. It’s your fudge.
I love the mini bite-size pieces. Perfect portion control. Plus they’re rich, so smaller is better.
Although I did end up eating more than 1… maybe 4..ish? Hey, being a recipe developer is a tough job, lol. Somebody’s gotta taste it. 😉
But when I let my hubby and kids try it, they kept coming back for seconds and thirds (ok maybe 4ths, too!). This stuff is GOOD.
Even my husband, who is NOT a big fan of stevia, LOVED these.
You can enjoy this FREEZER Fudge straight from the freezer for a firmer bite – like a bar of chocolate (peanut butter flavored chocolate!! YUM).
OR let it set at room temperature for a few minutes to soften ever so slightly for a fudgy -melt in your mouth- DREAMY treat.
But, hence the name “Freezer Fudge” it’s gotta stay in the freezer or it will melt.

Hi, these look great! How much maple syrup do you think I could use in place of the stevia drops?
Thanks! I think maple syrup might make them too soft. But if you want to give it a try, I would start with 1 Tbs at the very end with the vanilla, and adjust to taste.
Perhaps adding one extra Tbs of coconut oil would make up for the extra liquid?
If you try it with maple, please do report back how it goes!
Coconut palm sugar would work, too. I would try 2-3 Tbs. Hope that helps!
I can’t wait to try these. Would cacao powder work or will it drastically change the texture?
It would be different than fudge, but might work if you add more coconut oil. It would be more like bark, I think. If you try it, let me know how it goes!
Hi Emily. Looks delicious! Do you by any chance know how much of the powdered Stevia rather than liquid, to use? Also, I can’t seem to get my hands on the Vanilla Creme and Amazon Canada doesn’t have it. Since I’ll be using the regular flavour, should I add in extra vanilla?
Thanks! If you’re using pure stevia powder (no other ingredients), start with just a little dash. Taste and see if it needs any more. You can add an extra splash of vanilla too Let me know how it turns out
Any idea how many fat grams per 1inch?
I haven’t calculated the stats for these yet, but you can paste the URL for this recipe into MyFitnessPal.com under the food tab & my recipes and it gives a quick readout
I also would like a break down carbs calories fat etc thank you
I just did a quick calc at MyFitnessPal.com and got 52 cal/4 g Fat/1 Net Carb/1 g Protein per serving (at 25 servings)
Does it have to be pink salt? Would anything else work? I’ve never used it before and am not sure about using it in other things. I hate to buy it just for this.
Regular salt will work fine. Pink is delicious though! I highly recommend trying it sometime.
Did I miss Macros listed somewhere???
Can’t wait to try these!

Hope you enjoy! 🙂 Let me know what you think if you try them.
Could I use unsweetened cacao powder instead?
You could try that, but it would be different texture than fudge. If you want to use cacao, I would try 3 Tbs cacao + 3 Tbs Tbs coconut oil in place of the chocolate (and taste and adjust). If you try it, let me know how it goes! 🙂
Just tried it with cacao! It’s delish 🙂
1/3 cup peanut butter
3 Tbs cacao
1/3 cup coconut oil, softened
25 drops Sweet Leaf vanilla stevia , to taste
1 tsp vanilla
Pinch of pink salt
Mix all together and freeze into silicone molds or in a small dish lined with parchment.
Can I use regular stevia liquid? And if so how much since it doesn’t have a dropper?
Yes, that should work. It may vary by brand but I would just start with a little (maybe 1/16 tsp or a splash) and taste & adjust. It doesn’t take much at all for the stevia I use.
I put the recipe into My Fitness Pal and it says the servicing size is 1, is that one square? Or do you know how many goes into that 1 serving? Please let me know when you can:).
It makes about 25 pieces, depending on how big you slice them. I use a 5×5 dish and make 1″ pieces. And I usually eat 1 or sometimes 2. Hope that helps!
Would almond butter work instead of peanut butter in this? Same amount? thank you.
Yes, that should work fine 🙂
Which version tastes better, the cacao or chocolate bar? Thanks!
Whoops, I got mixed up and replied about the Reese’s cups recipe instead of fudge! I like the coconut oil version better actually! 🙂
Can I add pecans?
Absolutely! That’s a great idea
