Does this triple chocolate nutella fudge look healthy to you?
Surprise!
Or maybe not a surprise, given that this is the healthy dessert blog. But can you believe this melt-in-your-mouth healthy nutella fudge can have absolutely ZERO added sugar? Plus, it can be made in 5 minutes flat!
Healthy, easy, and chocolate. Best of both all worlds.
Healthy Nutella Fudge
(gluten-free and no-bake!)
- 1/4 cup coconut butter, melted
- 1/4 cup chocolate hazelnut spread or Homemade Healthy Nutella
- 1-2 tsp cocoa powder or cacao powder
- 65g very ripe banana – about 1/4 a large banana
- 1/8 tsp salt
- sugar or sweetener of choice, if desired (Some people want it; others don’t)
Healthy Nutella Fudge Recipe: Combine all ingredients in a food processor or blender. (It’s best if the coconut butter is not solid, and if you use a frozen banana be sure to thaw so it doesn’t harden the coconut butter.) After blending, taste to see if you’d like to add any sweetener. Scoop into a container or even a little pie pan, and put in the fridge or freezer so it will firm up. (Alternatively, you can eat it soft, like frosting!) If desired, top with chocolate chips and extra Healthier Nutella (recipe linked above) like I did in the top two photos. This is freezer fudge, so it needs to be kept cold. It makes a small serving, but feel free to double or triple the recipe!

Do you like surprises, or do you hate not being in control?
Obviously, no one likes bad surprises. But if you’re a control freak or hate change, even good surprises might stress you out by interfering with your well-laid plans.
For me, it depends. My 16th birthday was a surprise party, and it was one of the best nights of my life. Or, if I’m expecting an early night, and a friend calls up and want to go out, I’m usually excited for the last-minute change of plans. However, when I read about husbands surprising their wives with spur-of-the-moment trips, I know I would hate that. If I’m going on a trip, I’d prefer to know well in advance so I can pack accordingly!
Chocolate surprises? They’re always good. I mean the edible ones, not the ones Batman keeps leaving on the rug! 😕
Your first question really makes me giggle-
aside from the fruit recipes you post, your food NEVER looks like it’s good for you! Everything looks amazing and decadent. I would definitely pay to get a photography course from you 😉
I keep pinning your site from Pinterest, b/c you have such good recipes I want to try. Thank you SO much for sharing them!!!
Hello,
Is coconut oil and butter the same? Also, is there a way to print your recipes other than cut/paste?
Nope, not the same (although some sites use them interchangeably) – think peanut oil vs peanut butter. Both are solid at room temp, but coconut butter contains some of the meat whereas coconut oil does not. I’ve also heard coconut oil doesn’t taste much like coconut, but I haven’t tried it for myself yet!
I don’t know how you do it,they look so naughty but are 0% evil,gonna make them for my dad his not supposed to have sugar.On question of the day,it depends…..I am a control freak and like you would want to prepare for a holiday but loadsa money falling from the sky surprise that I could get down with.
Loads of money falling from the sky? Yeah, I could go for that too ;).
Loved this fudge, btw. I never got around to trying the plain chocolate version, and now I don’t think I ever will. I don’t think anything could be better than this fudge in my belly right now! So good!!!
Had to wait until tonight to make it, because I went to Whole Foods special for the coconut butter! Ah, the joys of living close to Whole Foods so I can go right away to buy whatever I need for CCK’s latest genius recipe ;).
I think the only desserts I eat now are YOUR recipes!
Oh, and this was “lick the blender good”. It’s in the freezer now, but of course I snuck a few tastes ;).
Katie, this looks too good to be true! no bake, quick, easy, and sugarfree? Perfect in my world. I love your recipes using coconut butter. 🙂
What’s the topping on the ones in the top pictures?
The linked healthy nutella recipe 🙂
Oh my word. If it wasn’t 11 pm I would get off my butt and make this right now. You are amazing Katie.
Don’t like surprises. I need to be in control at all times. He he.
Now that is something I know I would love! With all these beautiful sweet things you make it is amazing how you stay so skinny.
Hi Katie,
Just a question – does homemade coconut butter need to be kept in the fridge?
Love all your recipes!!!
Thanks!
nope!
