Five Minute Coconut Fudge

Five Minute Coconut Fudge from Living Without Magazine

Makes 32 small squares

"Rich, thick and creamy, this gluten-free dairy-free fudge is the real stuff. Even the smallest squares will satisfy the most dedicated chocoholics."
ingredients
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
3 1/2 cups confectioner's sugar
1/2 cup Dutch process cocoa powder
2 tablespoons margarine (I used butter)
1/2 cup regular coconut milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (gluten free, of course)
1 cup unsweetened flaked coconut, toasted

steps
  1. lightly grease an 8x8 inch square baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, combine chocolate chips, sugar and cocoa.
  3. Place margarine and coconut milk in a small saucepan and stir together over medium heat. Cook mixture until margarine melts and bubbles just begin to break the surface.
  4. Remove saucepan from stove and immediately pour over chocolate mixture. Let sit for a couple minutes and then stir vigorously to melt chocolate and incorporate dry ingredients. Continue stirring until mixture is smooth.
  5. Mix in vanilla and quickly pour fudge into prepared pan.
  6. Smooth out the top and sprinkle flaked coconut evenly over surface. Press coconut gently into fudge. Cool completely before cutting into squares.
