Rich, chocolatey, homemade sugar free chocolate fudge.
Hearing the words “sugar free” normally makes me think of cloyingly sweet, sucralose-laden desserts or beverages.
Chemical sugars and I do not get along. As a little kid, I put Sweet-n-Low in my iced tea because my mom said it dissolved better than sugar.
However, after a few months of awful stomachaches, we determined Sweet-n-Low didn’t like me very much.
The feeling is mutual. To me, foods with fake sugars tend to taste… well, fake.
But this sugar free chocolate fudge has no fake sugar.
It only has natural ingredients, which is perhaps why it tastes so completely delicious!
You’ll find no Darth Vaders lurking here in this rich, decadent, melt-in-your-mouth sugar free chocolate fudge.
The recipe has two options – both options are free of refined sugar, and use the stevia option if you want it to be 100% free of added sugar as well.
If you’re used to healthy desserts, some readers even say that the banana is sweetener enough – so it’s up to you!

Don’t forget the variations:
Sugar Free Chocolate Fudge
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup coconut butter (120g)
- 1 overripe banana, or 2/3 cup additional coconut butter (160g)
- scant 1/8 tsp salt
- pinch uncut stevia OR 2 tbsp pure maple syrup or honey
- 1/4 cup cacao or cocoa powder (40g)
- optional 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- optional 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
Instructions
- Make sure your coconut butter is melted before starting. Combine all ingredients in a food processor. Then smooth the fudge into a container or candy molds. Plastic containers work well, because you can pop the fudge right out. Place in the fridge for a few hours, or freeze for a few minutes. You can freeze it for longer periods of time; just be sure to thaw at least 15-20 minutes prior to eating.View Nutrition Facts

Hi i was wondering if you could use Cacao butter instead of coconut butter
Calling it “sugar free” is misleading. There is no ADDED sugar, no REFINED sugar, but a large, overripe banana is definitely not sugar free. It probably contains fifteen or sixteen grams of sugar. Which is still better than many other choices, no doubt. But this recipe is not sugar free.
Having said all that, it sounds really yummy, and I’m definitely going to try it one of these days when I have some overripe bananas (they don’t usually last long enough around here to get overripe).
How long will fudge last in the refrigerator? Great recipe, even my 2 year old loves them! Thanks!
Up to a week. Thanks for making it!
Hello Katie,
My husband is diabetic and I’m borderline diabetic. He LOVES chocolate and we used to make brownies, share a Reese’s peanut butter twin pack, etc. I’m looking for sugar-free, diabetic friendly recipes with the carb counts included. Could you post more recipes witht he carb counts so I’ll know if and how much we may consume? One more thing, if you have a sugar-free cheesecake recipe I’d LOVE to make that for his upcoming birthday – Feb 10th. Thank you & have a blessed and wonderful day,
Mary
I love your website. You have some great recipes here.
I’m excited to try these recipie for real sugar free candies. Thank you 🙂
I am a huge fudge lover. I will try this recipe and let you know what I think.
Hi Katie!
I’ve made a ton of the recipes on your blog, and am a huge fan of the melty pizza hummus, brownies, “reese’s”, etc. I love making these for friends. One close friend of mine is diabetic, and I was just wondering if this recipe (and any others) is safe for him? I’m not a licensed nutritionist so I want to be sure!
Thanks,
Em 🙂
It is probably best to check with a certified nutritionist or doctor. Some diabetics can eat things that others can’t, and it’s best to always make sure with someone who is a professional.
I absolutely love your site, I’ve done quite a few of your recipes now and enjoyed them all 🙂 My daughter loves to bake with me and I’m working at introducing more and more healthy alternatives to crappy sugar laden baking, however she has a nut allergy so the majority of recipes I do just for me or try ones that she can have. do you have any advice of what else I could use please? 🙂 x
Can your daughter have coconut? It’s actually a fruit, not a nut 😉
