I made the fudge with 1/8 unrefined coconut oil, the rest refined, used the walnuts, homemade vanilla, grade B syrup and put a few sprinkles of himalayan sea salt across top after I poured it. My husband does not like chocolate, he looked at it and of course thought the worst, but then tried it and really liked it. Next time I will either try some powdered peanut butter and reduce the cocoa powder or go with some finely ground toasted coconut (Chocolate Haystack), yum.

I didn't have a silicone mold so I used a cookie scoop (looks like a mini ice cream scoop) made cute lil drops. I sifted some cocoa powder over the tops and put them in the candy wrappers (like cupcake ones only smaller) and then put them on candy plates I made from melting hard candies in mini springform pans wrapped them up in holiday printed cellophane and gave them to the neighbors for Christmas gifts. Everyone loved them, and after they were gone I mentioned they were vegan-and they told me NO EVER LOVING WAY.

It was straight up agave, not "dark" or anything. How did it turn out? Well it's delicious but not as firm or smooth as yours looks in the picture. It fell apart getting it out of the molds. Considering I was more than willing to just take a spoon to it and eat half a dozen before I knew what I was doing, I'd say the taste didn't suffer.aijikohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00316119278133874555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-40240470520919415432015-02-03T15:07:43.325-05:002015-02-03T15:07:43.325-05:00You kill me Chef John, BTW where's the info ab...You kill me Chef John, BTW where's the info about why the refined coconut oil instead of E.V.C.O ?GenieBeeniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00886543686323049353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-34281562260354826262014-03-15T11:16:43.016-04:002014-03-15T11:16:43.016-04:00Thank you for the miracle recipe... !!Thank you for the miracle recipe... !!Pavan Katariyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12191377676183335295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-64866591482321551322014-02-23T13:19:21.364-05:002014-02-23T13:19:21.364-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.HyperHorsehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15641607125638920714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-87896058687524776012014-02-22T23:27:05.549-05:002014-02-22T23:27:05.549-05:00I'm not vegan and I never will be.

Ran out of maple syrup so topped it off with dark agave syrup. I had pecans just waiting to be toasted and added to fudge so I used them. And I subbed part of the refined coconut oil with pure EV coconut oil. Came out fantastic. So dark and rich. <br />Chef John, would it still come out good if I cut the syrup in half?
