chocolate peanutbutter fudge
i found this recipe somewhere at
livejournal. i'm sad to say that i don't remember where, so i have noone to credit. either way, this is awesome. perfect for chocolate cravings. (i don't have those alot, but when i do... oh man.) and by the way, most semi-sweet dark chocolate chips seem to be vegan, but check the ingredients before you buy. i've been told that
tropical source makes the best vegan ones, they're supposedly fair trade and all that good stuff, but i'm poor, so i'm not that picky.
ingredients:
3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup soy milk
3/4 cup peanutbutter (natural is better, but not necessary)
1/4 cup almonds, sliced or slivered
1/4 cup dates, chopped
directions:
mix chocolate chips, soy milk and peanutbutter in a pot. heat slowly on the stove while stirring. be careful not to burn the mix.
as soon as it's melted and well combined, add remaining ingredients and stir well. pour into a 9 x 13 pan lined with aluminum foil or plastic wrap. the original recipe calls for coconut shreds to sprinkle on top, but i'm not a fan of coconut, so i left that out.
put the fudge in the fridge until it gets firm. this should take about an hour. cut it in pieces and move to an airtight container. store in the fridge.
