I am all about sneaking vegetables into desserts when I can. That is exactly what I did with this Super Rich Healthy Fudge. This fudge tastes super rich and satisfying, but it contains a secret ingredient. It’s not beans or zucchini either! If you like desserts with hidden veggies, you may like this, this or this.
This super rich healthy fudge is vegan, gluten free, grain free and paleo. I can see this recipe being adapted to include other flavors or ingredients. I added some chocolate chips to the top of mine, but nuts or toasted coconut would be yummy too.

Decadent fudge that is secretly healthy!
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked pureed sweet potatoes (make sure they are pureed totally smooth)
- 1 cup cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 1/4 cup almond flour
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
- 2 flax eggs (real eggs should work too)
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 1/3 cups chocolate chips for topping (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350.
- In a food processor , blend the cooked sweet potatoes until they are completely smooth.
- Add in the remaining ingredients and blend until smooth. You may need to scrape down the sides several times.
- Line an 8x8 baking dish with parchment paper, leaving enough room for some paper to stick out the sides.
- Spoon batter into the baking dish. It will be VERY sticky. Sometimes wetting the spatula helps.
- If you are adding the chocolate chips, add them on top now.
- Bake for 35 minutes.
- Let the fudge completely cool and then place it in the fridge.
- Make sure the fudge is completely cooled before removing from the pan and slicing into squares.
Recipe Notes
Please keep this fudge in the fridge. It should last at least a week, maybe more. I haven't tried freezing it, but I am guessing it's possible to do that too. Enjoy!
