Here are my top recommendations for the best tools & ingredients to use in making Low Carb Keto Peppermint Fudge!

  • Keto Chocolate Chips – my favorite low-carb, low sugar chocolate chips that happen to be keto! They have such a delicious creamy, rich chocolate flavor, and they melt beautifully (unlike other low sugar chocolate options).
  • Creamy Almond Butter – one of the magic ingredients in this super simple peppermint fudge recipe. This creamy almond butter is so smooth and disappears wonderfully into the fudge (like we need it to!)
  • Organic Peppermint Extract – by far my favorite peppermint extract of all time. It has a wonderful, very aromatic & natural peppermint flavor. This one doesn’t taste like candy canes like some of the more artificial ones do; it tastes like real, fresh peppermint mixed with something sweet & creamy (think: chocolate mint Andes!!). I buy this in bulk!
  • Mailbox Gift Tin – I’m always looking for creative gift boxes and candy tins, so when I found these candy tins shaped like mailboxes, I was delighted! They’re so cute and adorned with a variety of holiday decorations.
  • Paper Holiday Treat Boxes – When I’m planning on gifting more than a few homemade treats, I make sure to stock up on holiday treats boxes made with paper. They’re so festive and fun!

Are you beyond excited to whip up a batch of this low carb peppermint keto fudge? ๐Ÿ™‚ Let’s make this! You know I can’t wait to hear what you think—let me know in the comments below! Forever grateful that you’re here, sharing in these kitchen adventures with me & our loved ones…

Some Sweet Moments…

Today’s the day we kick off the 1st Annual Beaming Baker Vegan Cookie Countdown! Are you super excited or what? ๐Ÿ™‚ (Don’t say “what”.  ?) Welcome to #9 in the 1st Annual Beaming Baker Vegan Cookie Countdown! We’re actually starting with a non-cookie recipe because: FUDGE, baby. FUDGE. *Mic drop* *Awkwardly picking the mic up again* Check out the blue box lower in the post (above the recipe) for every entry that I share. I’ll be keeping you up-to-date on all the recipes that I share during the vegan cookie countdown! ๐Ÿ™‚ Ready? Let’s get started!

One of my favorite holiday memories in the kitchen is from a few years back. Erik and I were living in the Boston area and oh-so-wonderfully close to my 6-year-old nephew, Dylan.

We stole away a cozy, wintry afternoon of fun holiday activities, such as taking him shopping for him momma (my amazing sister, Jenny), and swapping Christmas stickers for our respective sticker collections (oh YES, I love me some stickers!!), and making homemade peppermint fudge.

Dylan, aka PB, was so fascinated and delighted by the entire process. He was only four years old at the time and absolutely loved trying new things. His mom’s been known to show him around the kitchen when it came to all things delicious & savory, but had been a bit lighter on the sweets side.

Enter: E Mimi!!! <– His nickname for me.

I figured we could start his homemade vegan sweets odyssey nice and easy: with a super easy, 3 ingredient recipe. That cozy afternoon, after a day of screaming, laughing and running through the streets of Boston doing Christmas shopping, we retreated back to his house to warm up.

You should have seen his face when we started melting the vegan chocolate chips together with the nut butter. He could not believe how something so solid could turn all shiny and melty.

And when he smelled the peppermint extract? He literally giggled like there was no tomorrow. He had so much fun mixing the chocolate, almond butter and peppermint together like a mad, sweet scientist.

And when, a while later, he sawthat his melty chocolate mixture had turned into a solid block, perfect for his E Mimi to cut into fudge squares? Let’s just say, I’ve never seen a kid so happy and it’s one of the sweetest moments of my life. ๐Ÿ™‚

The only downside? His Popo (aka Grandma) didn’t get to enjoy much because she had to keep her sugar low. So this year… we’re remixing that beloved peppermint fudge and making it Low Carb, Low Sugar, and deliciously Keto. Welcome to the first BB Christmas recipe of the year: vegan + dairy-free Low Carb Peppermint Chocolate Fudge!! Dedicated to PB & Grams… two of the sweetest people I know.

Side note: if you’re craving some more keto snacks that don’t happen to have chocolate involved, make sure to check out my 3 Ingredient Almond Butter Keto Fat Bomb Recipe4 Ingredient Keto Peanut Butter Bars and my 3 Ingredient Peanut Butter Keto Energy Balls Recipe. I hope you love this peppermint fudge as much as I do. Enjoy.

    This looks amazing! I am allergic to almonds; do you think subbing cashew butter or even coconut butter would work?

    1. Demeter | Beaming Baker says:

      Hi Megan! I havenโ€™t tried it with coconut butter, but cashew butter will work great. .

  2. Marsha says:

    Sounds delicious. I love mint so going to make that and then I am going to make a batch without mint but stir in a few walnuts. Now I am SO anxious to go shopping tomorrow and pick up a new jar of Almond Butter. ๐Ÿ™‚

    1. Demeter | Beaming Baker says:

      Ooh that does sound delicious Marsha! . Canโ€™t wait to hear what you think of the recipe!

    I made this today. I didn’t have peppermint so I used vanilla extract. I found coffee extract and orange extract in my pantry but was hesitant to use either because hubby doesn’t care for either one. This fudge was so easy and I love the dark chocolate taste. This recipe is a keeper. Thank you!

    1. Demeter | Beaming Baker says:

      Hi Luci! Iโ€™m so pleased to hear that you enjoyed my peppermint fudge recipe. Iโ€™m so glad that you were able to use another extract & get yummy results! Thanks for stopping by & letting me know how it all turned out. Enjoy!

  4. Julia says:

    This looks great! Have you tried it with sunflower butter? I’m just wondering how much that would alter the taste.

    1. Demeter | Beaming Baker says:

      Thanks Julia! I havenโ€™t myself, but know of a few readers who have & enjoyed it. I think it might be due to how โ€œused toโ€ you are to the taste of sunflower butter? Let me know if you do try it! ๐Ÿ™‚

      1. Julia says:

        5 stars
        So I did try it. It got mixed reviews from the kids, but that’s because they don’t all love sunbutter. I think it tastes like peppermint sun butter cups. Yum! I will try again with almond butter and see how my people like that.

        Thanks for this great site, Demeter!

      2. Demeter | Beaming Baker says:

        You are so welcome Julia! Sun butter isnโ€™t for everyone, so letโ€™s see what they think of the almond butter! .

  5. Alexia says:

    So excited to make this, It looks amazing!! Also part of me wants to make it boozy …

    1. Demeter | Beaming Baker says:

      Yay!! Thanks Alexia! ๐Ÿ™‚ Ooooh… boozy! Sounds fun. Tell me more! .

      1. Alexia says:

        Youโ€™re welcome! Really tempted to put some rum or vodka in it …

      2. Demeter | Beaming Baker says:

        LOL now that would be a treat! .

      3. Alexia says:

        Absolutely …

  6. Palutena says:

    This looks incredible! And only THREE INGREDIENTS!!! *drops mic*
    *awkwardly picks it back up* . .
    Happy Holidays!!

    1. Demeter | Beaming Baker says:

      Thanks Palutena!!! Itโ€™s a must-try! So easy & delish. Hope you love it. Btw, I knew youโ€™d loved that joke! …..

  7. Amy says:

    Have you ever tried this recipe without adding the peppermint?

    1. Demeter | Beaming Baker says:

      Yes! And it tastes just as amazing. .

  8. Lynn says:

    Great fudge just made it omg thank you recipe great job

    1. Demeter | Beaming Baker says:

      Woohoo! Thatโ€™s so awesome to hear Lynn! .

  9. Sharon Blickenstaff says:

    If I wanted to use straight unsweetened baking chocolate should I add a little stevia? From the bag of chips it looks like thereโ€™s stevia in it. This looks good. Anxious to try it!

    1. Demeter | Beaming Baker says:

      Hi Sharon! Iโ€™ve had a few mishaps with subbing unsweetened baking chocolate with sweetened chocolate chips in the past. If you chose to do so, proceed with caution & keep an open mind for experimenting lol. Let me know how it turns out!
