Ingredients

Chocolate Layer:

Instructions

For the Chocolate Layer:

  • Line an 8x8” brownie pan with parchment paper both ways.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the protein powder, cocoa powder, and salt.
  • In a large bowl, stir together the melted coconut butter and honey. Whisk in the coconut milk, then whisk in the almond extract and stevia extract.
  • Dump the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and stir together until completely combined (mixture should look like a dark paste). Scoop this into the prepared pan and spread it out. Press to flatten in an even layer. Place the pan in the fridge while you make the coconut layer.

For the Coconut Layer:

  • In a small bowl, whisk together the protein powder and optional CBD isolate.
  • In a large bowl, stir together the melted coconut butter and honey. Whisk in the coconut milk, then whisk in the stevia extract.

  1. Just found your site through finding vegan, and I am so glad I did! Your recipes look so amazing!! This bar sounds incredible! I will have to try this very soon! 🙂

  2. Okay, that officially looks awesome. I’d have to sweeten with other things but I may have to take a stab at making this low carb!

  3. Wow, another decadent recipe…nothing is better than an almond joy!
    Love your site Jessica! I just nominated you for the Versatile Blogger Award.

  4. Hi Jessica, just found your site through G+ and wanted to leave a comment to say this fudge looks awesome! Love Almond Joy (and coconut)and the fact these have a healthy spin to them!

  5. Hi Jessica,
    I just found your site and now im in love with it. But im just wondering instead of protein powder can we sub something else in like coconut flour or almond meal and i’ll just bake it instead?

    • You might be able to replace the protein powder with those flours but I wouldn’t recommend baking it. It will most likely turn out dry and crumbly. Start by adding the flour of choice 1 tablespoon at a time, then stop once you get a thick fudgy texture. I hope this works out for you!

  6. These turned out delicious!5 stars
