• Ingredients

  Fudge Base
  
  1/2 cup hemp powder or almond meal
  1 cup almond or hazelnut meal
  1/2 cup raw cacao powder
  1/2 cup peanut, macadamia or almond butter
  1/4 cup Incredible Coconut Oil see online store
  1/4 cup MCT Keto Tonic see online store
  1/2 teaspoon vanilla bean seeds, extract or powder
  1/4 teaspoon green leaf stevia or 1/4 cup Lakanto Monk Fruit Sweetener, honey, maple syrup, coconut sugar
  
  Choc Layer
  
  1/2 cup raw cacao butter or Incredible Coconut Oil
  1/2 cup raw cacao powder
  1/2 cup hemp seeds
  1/2 cup macadamia nuts roughly chopped
  1 tablespoon raw cacao nibs
  1/4 teaspoons green leaf stevia or 1/4 cup Lakanto Monk Fruit Sweetener, honey, maple syrup, coconut sugar

• Method

  For the base, mix together the hemp powder, almond meal and raw cacao powder until well combined. Now add the sweetener of choice, coconut oil, MCT oil, vanilla bean and nut butter. Stir well to combine into a thick paste.

  Press this mixture into a cake or brownie tin covered with parchment paper and place in the fridge to firm up. Now get onto the chocolate layer. Over low heat, gently melt down your raw cacao butter and once liquid, stir in your raw cacao powder. Stir or whisk to incorporate and remove from the heat. Add your sweetener of choice, hemp seeds and macadamia nuts, and stir well to combine.

  Pour this mixture over your base layer, sprinkle with raw cacao nibs and set in the freezer for 20 minutes or until form enough to slice and enjoy. Store in an airtight container in the fridge or freezer. Please note, for Keto you need to use the green leaf stevia as the sweetener. The smart carb paleo approach can use maple syrup, honey or coconut sugar.
