Primal Fudge (And Tropical Traditions GIVEAWAY!)

Do you love chocolate? I do! Do you love coconut? I do, too! Do you love marshmallows? Throw ya hands up & say hail yeah!
What happens when you put them all together? If you've already come to the conclusion and are saying "Ohhhh, fu---"
You'd be right. It's FUDGE!

Here's what you need:

1/4c coconut cream concentrate (if it has separated into coconut butter & coconut oil, make sure to slowly warm it and recombine)
1/4c cacao butter
1/4c extra virgin coconut oil
1/4c cocoa powder (can also use carob if you are sensitive to chocolate)
8 drops liquid chocolate raspberry stevia (or any stevia, really)
Chopped nuts (optional)
1 package La Nouba gluten free, 0 carb marshmallows, chopped
2 pots (one smaller, one bigger, we're gonna set up a double boiler here)
water (enough to fill bigger pot just over 1/2 way)

Fill larger pot with water, set it on high heat. Get it boiling. In smaller pot, add coconut cream concentrate, cacao butter, and coconut oil. Place smaller pot into the boiling water. Lower heat to medium.

Stirring constantly, melt your ingredients until they are combined. Add the cocoa or carob powder and mix well.


Remove from heat, add stevia to taste, and the chopped marshmallows. Now would be a good time to add your nuts as well.

Spread on to plate and place into fridge.

Allow to cool and set. Enjoy!
