Ingredients
  

Main ingredients
  • 2 cups cashew butter Use smooth, runny cashew butter for best texture.
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil Measure carefully; too much will make the fudge too soft.
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup Can substitute with honey, but will alter the flavor.
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt For a more pronounced salted caramel flavor, sprinkle on top.
Optional Variations
  • 2 tablespoons melted dark chocolate For a chocolate swirl variation.
  • 1/4 cup chopped toasted pecans or almonds Adds a nutty crunch to the fudge.
  • toasted coconut flakes Sprinkle on top for a coconut kiss.
  • pinch flaky sea salt Finish each cup with salt for extra flavor.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Line a 24-count mini muffin tin with muffin liners and set aside.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl or on the stovetop, combine all ingredients and heat until just melted.
  3. Remove from heat and whisk very well until the mixture is smooth and glossy.
  4. Divide the fudge batter evenly among the lined muffin tray.
  5. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or until firm.

Notes

Store the fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. Let it sit at room temperature for 10–15 minutes before serving for best texture.
