This is the BEST keto chocolate fudge. I say that because not only is it delicious and made of simple ingredients, it also doesn’t melt in your hands! It’s perfect for bringing to any Holiday Party.
1. The Best Keto Chocolate Fudge Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 cup Heavy Whipping Cream
- ⅓ cup Erythritol
- 2 tablespoon Butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1 cup Low Carb Chocolate Chips
- ¼ cup Chopped Pecans
Instructions
In a medium pan over medium heat, mix together the Heavy Whipping Cream, Erythritol, Butter, and Vanilla Extract, stirring often for about 15 minutes until a slightly browned, thick sweetened condensed milk forms
Remove from heat and let cool for 15 minutes before stirring in chocolate chips.
Once chocolate chips are melted, pour mixture into a parchment lined loaf pan and top with pecans before cooling in refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
Nutrition Infomations
You’re probably going to want to eat the whole pan… but if you have more self-control than I do, here’s the breakdown of nutrition for just one piece (recipe makes 12 servings). This fudge is very rich so you might want to keep a cold glass of almond milk nearby!

Some Notes For You
I haven’t tried this recipe with Stevia because I don’t really care for the taste, but it may be possible to make the sweetened condensed milk with Stevia instead of Erythritol. If you do give it a shot, please let me know how it turns out!
To make this fudge in an 8×8 pan, just double the recipe!
If you are only able to find low carb chocolate chips like sugar free Hershey’s or Enjoy Life, this recipe should still work, but keep in mind the nutrition will be different. Also, many major brands sweeten their sugar free candies with ingredients like maltitol, which can cause digestive distress when consumed in large amounts.
Excited to make this recipe and really can’t find low carb chocolate chips/bars?
I added ⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder to the completely cooled (IMPORTANT) sweetened condensed milk, and put it in the refrigerator to set. It tasted different, but I think it still turned out good.
If you go this route, be sure to taste as you mix because you might find you’d like to add some extra powdered erythritol to make it sweeter.
Also, if you make it with the cocoa powder, just be aware that you’ll end up with less fudge because there’s less mass than chocolate chips/bars being added to the sweetened condensed milk. The nutritional information will be considerably different as well.
