Ingredients
- 2-1/2 cups chocolate chips, [I used dark chocolate chips because of their health benefits. Ghirardelli is a good brand and works well with this recipe)
- 1/4 cup canned coconut milk, (not the carton milk...canned is best for this recipe)
- 1/4 cup raw honey, coconut palm sugar or sucanat
- Dash of kosher or sea salt
- 1 teaspoon pure peppermint extract
- 1/2 cup diced walnuts (optional)
Directions
Add to a heavy saucepan chocolate chips, coconut milk, honey, and salt, stir to combine. Turn to medium-low heat and allow chocolate to completely melt, stir to prevent scorching.
After chocolate has completely melted remove from heat, add peppermint and stir to combine. If using walnuts, add and stir.
Allow to cool uncovered until fudge has reached room temperature...approximately 4 hours. Using a large spoon, stir vigorously for 5-10 minutes until it loses some the gloss.
Lightly spray a 1 quart casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray. Pour fudge into dish, cover and refrigerate 4 hours or until firm. Cut into 30 pieces.

Recipe was supposed to be for peppermint fudge, and picture is peppermint fudge and it is labeled peppermint fudge. However the ingredients and the recipe is for cinnamon rolls.
OH MY…thanks for pointing that out. We'll get it taken care of.
I got here from skinny ms skillet – if that helps find the error.
Thanks Denise! So sorry.
The recipe is not for the fudge as mentioned, but Cinn Rolls. Would you pls post the Peppermint Fudge receipt??
Thanks!
Nancy, I'm so sorry about that…not sure what happened. Here's the recipes, enjoy! Peppermint Fudge Be careful, it's addictive.

Change vanilla to peppermint extract. Also, want to confirm that the coconut milk is either 3/4 cup or 1/3 cup, depending on the saturated fat? That seems like a really wide swing.
Lisa, I use 3/4 cup lite coconut milk when making my fudge…it has 4 g sat fat. Tiffany made it with 1 g and it was too thin…she reduced to 1/3 cup and it was perfect. The fat content makes a big difference.
Can I use milk instead of coconut milk? Or almond milk?
Lee, You could try half and half….not sure if the fudge would get solid enough. Almond milk would not work, too thin.
Delicious and very easy to make!
Would it taste just as great if I didn't want to add the mint and just make it regular fudge?
Sure. That’s fine.
