2 Ingredient Vegan Chocolate Peanut Butter Freezer Fudge (Vegan, Gluten Free, Dairy-Free)
2 Ingredient Vegan Chocolate Peanut Butter Freezer Fudge (V, GF, DF): a super easy recipe for thick, decadent chocolate peanut butter fudge. Vegan, Gluten Free, Dairy-Free.
It’s almost Valentine’s Day! AKA, the perfect excuse to eat all the chocolate soon (plus some peanut butter because we’re awesome like that). Btw, have you tried my 2 minute 5 ingredient homemade fudge recipe? Just sayin, you’ll love it–plus there’s no refrigeration required for storing!!
Anywho, are you a big fan of the holiday?
Do you go all out and make tons of treats, DIY heart-adorned tablecloths, and book wine cruises and hot air balloon tours? <–WOAH!!! Take me with you! I’m semi-onboard with V-day, but generally pretty chill about it. Erik and I’ve had a few fun adventures building up to the holiday–which I’ll tell you all about below.
But before I get waaaay too misty-eyed telling you about this, I’m gonna get to the recipe: 2 Ingredient Vegan Chocolate Peanut Butter Freezer Fudge. It’s so simple, so easy to make and ridiculously good. But of course, you can tell your loved one that it took you all day and then some to prepare this. We can keep the easy prep time between us. 😉 And just in case you’re looking for an amazing chocolate-free PB fudge recipe, try my friend Erin’s vegan peanut butter fudge over at Texanerin. All I have to say is: YUM!
Anywho, I’ve been thinking about this recipe for quite some time. I may or may not have whipped up a few batches over Christmas. But at the time, I had already shared almond butter fudge cups, peppermint crunch bars, double chocolate peanut butter brownies and no bake chocolate peanut butter bars with you.
I thought you might be a bit chocolate/nut butter overloaded. And in the blink of an eye, it was January and totally time to clean up all the candy and cookie recipes. But here we are, safely seated in February… we’ve all done a kickass job with our resolutions and now it’s totally time for a little treat. Don’t you think? 😉
Treats, chocolate, peanut butter… what more could you really need in life? I’ve got a lot of wonderful things on my mind, some of them sweet and some of them even sweeter. Some of them even low carb, like this dreamy low carb peanut butter fudge from All Day I Dream About Food! . So go ahead, grab a bowl, just 2 ingredients and let’s make some 2 Ingredient Vegan Chocolate Peanut Butter Freezer Fudge! 🙂
While I wait with bated breath to hear what you think of this fudge, let me tell you about one of my favorite Valentine’s Day memories. *Cue the harps*
It was 2009… and our first year of dating. Please, try not to count how many it’s been.
…
You did it anyway, didn’t you??
Back then, Erik played it real coy (i.e. he was wayyyy less communicative than I was used to). He was really pumped about taking me on our first vacay to celebrate Valentine’s Day. He was actually so pumped and devoted to making it all super intriguing that he refused to tell me where we were going. Dude, not cool.
Okay, kinda cool. But not cool for my packing situation, ya feel me?
So I asked and bugged and bribed and even batted my eyelashes (soooo not effective without pounds of mascara, btw) that he finally gave me one clue. He told me, “You have to wear waterproof boots.”
Say whaaaaaaa?
Tell me, what would you make of this? My young, wild mind went to all the places: white-river rafting, jet-skiing, water park, water world, wet jungles of some sort, pool cleaning (I. Don’t. Even. Know.), and scenic rafting. Apparently I really wanted to go rafting.
I walked all over San Francisco, searching for the perfect waterproof boots that would look stylish and sexy, but were also versatile and rugged. My mind dreamed of grander and wilder locales ’til I just couldn’t take it anymore.
In the end, I buckled under the pressure. And soooo did not buy waterproof boots for the trip. I wasn’t made of money, ya know? 😉
The day of the trip finally came. Erik and I walked into the airport, and up to a check-in kiosk. Alas, I saw the destination:
Seattle, WA.
Me: “Are we going whitewater rafting in Seattle.”
Erik: “Um, no. Why?? Did you book a reservation to go rafting. Oh!!! I wanna go rafting!!”
Me: “What?? Why would I book a reservation?? I didn’t even know where we were going!!”
E: “Oh, right. Well, what do you think?”
Me: “Are we going to a water park in Seattle? I’ve always wanted to go to Seattle!!”
E: “A water park! That would be so cool!! Did you book a—”
Me: *Eye glare*
E: “Oh. Right again… Hmm. Anyway, did you bring your waterproof boots?”
Me: “Er… no. Is that gonna be a huge problem? I kinda blew it, I know! But I can’t handle it! What kind of watery adventure are we going on?? Is there any kind of rafting involved??” (Why was I so obsessed with rafting??)
E: “Watery adventure? Umm…”
Me: “Why did you want me to bring waterproof boots? I don’t get it.”
E: “Because it’s Seattle. It rains a lot there.”
I narrow my eyes and look right into Erik’s shiny, big greenish gray doe eyes. Innocent as can be. His eyes widen even more innocently. Mine narrow even more. He smiles, hopeful as a puppy.
And I laugh. And laugh. And laugh.
Me: “I love you.”
And he laughs, too. ❤️

Instructions

Notes
– *I used a 9-inch loaf pan.
– Store in an airtight container in the freezer for 1-2 months. If storing in the refrigerator, good for up to 2 weeks.

Nowhere around me sells chocolate chips that no chance of contamination of milk. I can’t make myself buy them if there is the chance, on account of dairy allergy. Can I use cocoa powder and if so, how much.
Hi Shoshonna! Unfortunately, this recipe is designed to be used with chocolate chips, so it just wouldn’t come out the same with cocoa powder. You might try looking at some online retailers like Amazon for dairy-free chocolate chips. Also, many stores like Target also ship products as well. Hope this helps!
Can you use carob chips instead of choc chips?
Hi Sydney, yes! I think that should work just fine. Can’t wait to hear how it turns out! 🙂
Having trouble printing recipes from your lovely website. Do you have any idea why?
Everything looks absolutely out of this world delish!
Hi RoxAnn, I just replied to your comment on the cranberry almond bars. Let me know if you didn’t receive it! 🙂
I made this, its so good!!! I used coconut oil instead of wax paper and it was super yummy. Also, i drizzled maple syrup on top before popping it in the freezer. Excellent recipe!
Such a great idea to use coconut oil! And I’m totally drooling over the idea of a maple syrup drizzle. So glad you enjoyed this, Renee! Thanks for taking the time to report back. 😉
Have you ever tried making this fudge with non-natural peanut butter? I just can’t seem to get on the natural peanut butter bandwagon!
Hi Nikki! I’ve never tried this with non-natural peanut butter. But I can assure you that this is super indulgent and seriously delish with natural PB. Let me know if you end up giving it a try! 😉
do you have the nutrition facts on them?
Fudge just doesn’t get any more easier than this, and it’s chocolate peanut butter too – bonus! This fudge looks gorgeous and SO delicious! Hope you have an awesome week, Demeter! 🙂 xo
It seriously doesn’t! 😉 Thanks so much Marsha. Hope you’re having an amazing week too! xoxo
I don’t have special V-day story for you today but I do have a big bag of unpeeled peanuts in my pantry… hahaha A HUGE one! AND I’ve been waiting for an excuse to give that bag to my hubby … not as a v-day gift 😀 BUT to peel the peanuts so I can make homemade peanut butter. And this AMAZING fudge is THE RIGHT excuse! I will get him to peel the whole bag so that I can make him this delicious fudge as a V-day gift LOL He will be thrilled… with fudge I mean, not so much with peeling peanuts 🙂 That’s amoreee <3
Are you working on that book yet? The compilation of short stories that will undoubtedly be a best seller and fly off all the shelves? Because I’m probably not going to shut up about how good a storyteller (and how hilarious of stories you have) until you do, you know that right? Just be prepared. But seriously waterproof boots–I would be 100% freaking out expecting the craziest of swimming/wading/canoeing/water aerobics adventure too. Can you imagine going to down a waterslide in boots though. The love-hate excitement of surprise gifts. And FUDGE!! It does feel like we can all take a deep breath now that January (a.k.a. only post healthy or healthy-looking things month) is over! Yay February and V-Day and time for chocolate again…. Two perfect ingredients in so many perfect little squares. Someone better portion these out for me otherwise I foresee a lot of fudge going down real fast. xoxo
Aw, Natalie… <3 <3 What would I do without my bestie here to root me on and love my shenanigans? 🙂 <3 Yep, that's probably why we're friends--we have the same wild imaginations. Lolol. On second thought... why WOULD I wear boots down a waterslide?? . It's totally time to get a little indulgent. 😉 xoxo
Demeter, you’ve done it again! Made me drool onto my phone. I should learn to control myself where chocolate be peanut butter are concerned! Love your Seattle story too. As an Oregan native I can attest that sexy/practical rain boots aren’t easy to come by :).
Thanks so much Kelsie! 🙂 We’ve all got to start getting waterproof protectors for our phones–I’m the same way! Lolol. Here’s to eventually finding sexy/practical rain boots. .
You say peanut butter, I come running! That’s a cute Valentine’s Day story but it’s a good thing you didn’t buy the boots though (men). And now I’m really hoping you eventually got to go rafting?!
Since I say that a lot, you might as well stick around for awhile. 😉 🙂 Seriously on the boots! LOL on rafting. Thanks Meg!
Hahahahaha. Girl, we get along so well because I would have had alllll the same thoughts and ideas running through my head if I heard ‘waterproof boots’! I mean, rafting totally would have been on my mind in every scenario! So sweet he took you to Seattle! I bet you guys had the BEST time… and I’m sure it was waaaaaaay more fun than white water rafting! 😉 Okay, Valentine’s day. Pshhh I’m just trying to get through the days right now, so I don’t have anything planned. But I’m thinking with all the stress we have going on here I’m in NEED of a wine cruises AND hot air balloon tour! Followed by a B&B and a massage. And then another wine cruise. hahahaha. <3 Anyways, LOVE this fudge! TWO ingredients?! Staaap it! You genius you! AND freezer friendly?! Plus we can't forget the obvious – peanut butter and chocolate!! Valentine's Day perfection, doll! Pinned! Cheers! xoxo P.s. hope you are having SO much fun right now! 😉
LOLOL. That’s my Chey! Why wouldn’t there be rafting involved, riiiight.? It was a truly wonderful trip. 🙂 I am soooo hoping that you two get to go on a wine cruise, a hot air balloon tour and all the fantastic, relaxing things. YES on the B&B and massage, like 50 of them for you! Muah, muah, muah. xoxo P.S. Thanks Chey! Love ya.
My husband and I started dating in ’09 too…actually on Sunday it will be our date-versary! 🙂 I’m not really big into celebrating Valentine’s Day, but we do order a heart-shaped pizza every year, something I look forward to! And I love your story about waterproof boots…that’s too cute! Now onto this fudge…YUM! I love that it’s a freezer version, Demeter! And it has chocolate and pb, only the best combo ever! Sounds like my kind of treat! Pinned, of course. Hope you have a great weekend!
Happy early Date-versary!!! Oh goodness, that heart-shaped pizza sounds amazing! I would totally be looking forward to it too. 😉 You would absolutely love this, G. 🙂 Have a great weekend celebrating.! <3
