PREPARATION
These steps are followed for the preparation of No-Bake Chocolate Almond Fudge Slice Bite:
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In a small bowl, whisk 2 tablespoons of almond flour and 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder until evenly distributed, ensuring a smooth chocolate base.
- Add Almond Butter: Spoon in 1 tablespoon creamy almond butter. Use a small spatula to break up any clumps, folding until the dry mix is moistened.
- Sweeten With Maple Syrup: Drizzle 1 tablespoon of maple syrup over the mixture. Stir vigorously until a pliable and slightly sticky dough forms. Add a few drops of water if too dry.
- Press Into Shape: Line a small ramekin or tin with parchment paper. Transfer the dough and press firmly into the base to create an even layer.
- Chill To Set: Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or until the slice is firm to the touch and holds its shape when lifted.
- Unmold And Slice: Lift the chilled slice out using the parchment paper. Slice in half or into wedges, depending on preference and serve immediately.

TIPS
These tips enhance the quality of No-Bake Chocolate Almond Fudge Slice Bite:
- Measure Precisely: Level off almond flour and cocoa to ensure correct texture and prevent dryness.
- Warm Almond Butter: Briefly soften almond butter (5 seconds in microwave) for easier mixing.
- Line Well: Use parchment paper that overlaps your tin so you can lift the slice out cleanly.
- Firm Press: Press the mixture firmly to avoid crumbs and create a tidy edge.
- Chill Adequately: Allow full chilling time so the slice cuts neatly without sticking.
- Plate Presentation: Dust the top lightly with extra cocoa powder or coconut flakes for a polished look.
VARIATIONS
- Nut Crunch: Sprinkle 1 teaspoon chopped pistachios or hazelnuts on top before chilling.
- Citrus Zest: Stir in ¼ teaspoon finely grated orange or lemon zest for brightness.
- Spiced Slice: Add ⅛ teaspoon ground cinnamon or chilli flakes to the dry mix for warmth or heat.
- Berry Swirl: Press a few freeze-dried raspberry pieces into the top before chilling for tart pops.
- Protein Boost: Mix in 1 tablespoon vanilla plant-based protein powder and reduce almond flour accordingly.
PREPPING AND STORAGE
- Refrigerator: Store the slices in an airtight container for up to five days. Keep chilled and allow to sit at room temperature for two minutes before eating for easier slicing.
