That happened to me as well and it seems like two different textures as well. Do you think it could be re-heated some to mix back together? Do you think it’s weird to still try to give it as a gift?

You are welcome to chop up some nuts to be used in the recipe. I would not recommend sending it through the mail as it is very melt-able. It needs to be refrigerated at all times.

Sounds yummy, easy, and healthy!
2 questions:
Can BLACK WALNUTS be used in this fudge recipe? I don’t know if the flavors will compete or compliment.
Also, can this finished fudge be sent through the mail for a Valentine’s gift, or will it melt in route?

Thanks so much for this recipe!! I’ve found I like this even better than “regular” fudge! I made this last Christmas & again this Christmas and gave some to a friend who subsequently asked me for the recipe. This last time I made it with only 2/3 cup honey & it was still plenty sweet.
This is definitely a keeper!

I’ve noticed this happens when your oil is too hot. It will still solidify in the fridge but will have more of a layered look.

Help! The fudge batter separated. What now?

Thank you very much for this recipe! I found it almost a year ago when we were on the GAPS diet and Valentines was approaching. My kids wanted some candies like usual, and this satisfied all of us! I made a trial batch in January, and on Valentines we used it for peanut butter cup candies (pour a bit into silicone muffin cups, let harden in fridge for a few minutes, cover with a dollop of peanut butter and more of the chocolate mixture, and set in fridge). They were SO delicious!!! Better than Reese’s, and those have been my favorite candy since early childhood. I can’t believe I can make better ones myself! For Easter we made this basic recipe but I poured it into cookie cutters in a pan and carefully set in the fridge. It worked beautifully, so the kids had large, shaped candies — if I’d had sticks to insert they could have been lolipops! We love it with coconut oil, but this time we’re out so I’m going to try butter for our Halloween candies.

Wow thanks this turned out great!…..I used half coconut oil and half butter. Satisfies that chocolate craving. I didn’t think it would be sweet enough but it’s perfect. Thanks!

It can be used as a substitute for coconut oil. You want an all natural palm oil as described here.

I was wondering whether the palm oil mentioned was instead of the coconut oil?…. and if its the palm oil vegetable shortening?
