Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

1 1/2 cups (about 270g) 60% dark or higher chocolate
3/4 cup thick coconut yogurt or Greek-style yogurt (preferably unsweetened vanilla)
Pinch of sea salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
Chopped nuts, dried fruit, or other toppings (optional)

Instructions

Prepare the Yogurt: Allow the yogurt to come close to room temperature by letting it sit out for a few minutes. If your yogurt is unflavored, stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract to enhance the flavor of the fudge.
Line the Pan: Line a small loaf pan or a glass tupperware container with parchment paper to prevent sticking and to make removal easier later on.
Melt the Chocolate: Using either a double boiler or microwave, melt the dark chocolate. For microwave method, heat the chocolate in 30-second increments, stirring thoroughly between each until smooth and fully melted.
Combine Chocolate and Yogurt: Quickly pour the melted chocolate over the yogurt. Mix thoroughly with a spatula until the mixture is uniform and smooth. Be sure to work quickly to prevent the chocolate from hardening and creating a crumbly texture.
Transfer and Freeze: Immediately pour the combined mixture into the prepared pan. Place the pan in the freezer and freeze for a few hours until the fudge has firmed up sufficiently.
Cut and Serve: Once firm, remove the fudge from the pan using the parchment paper. Cut into pieces and optionally sprinkle with flaky sea salt or your choice of toppings like chopped nuts or dried fruit.
Storage: Store the fudge pieces in an airtight container or freezer bag in the freezer for up to 2 months. Avoid refrigerating as it can cause the fudge to become too soft.

Notes

For sweeter fudge, you can use sweetened yogurt, but ensure it is still very thick for the best texture.
The recipe works best with chocolate that has at least 60% cocoa content or higher for optimal flavor and richness.
Work quickly when mixing chocolate and yogurt to avoid the chocolate seizing or becoming crumbly.
Freezing is essential for setting the fudge; storing it in the fridge may make it too soft.
Feel free to add chopped nuts, dried fruit, or sprinkle flaky sea salt on top for added flavor and texture.
