Ingredients
- 3 ripe bananas (approximately 300 g / 10.5 oz)
- 200 g (7 oz) dark chocolate (70% cocoa or higher)
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla powder or extract (optional)
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon powder (optional)
Instructions
Prepare the Bananas
Peel 3 ripe bananas and place them in a large mixing bowl. For the best results, use bananas that are ripe with brown spots, as they will be naturally sweeter and blend more smoothly.
Mash the Bananas
Using a fork or potato masher, thoroughly mash the bananas until completely smooth with no lumps remaining. The smoother your banana puree, the creamier your final fudge will be.
Melt the Chocolate
Break 200 g of dark chocolate into small pieces and place in a heatproof bowl. Set the bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler method), making sure the bottom of the bowl doesn’t touch the water. Stir continuously until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth. Alternatively, you can microwave the chocolate in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval until fully melted.
Combine Ingredients
Pour the melted chocolate into the mashed bananas. If using vanilla and cinnamon, add them now for an extra depth of flavor.
Whisk Until Smooth
Using a hand whisk or electric mixer, blend the chocolate and banana mixture vigorously for 3-5 minutes. This step is crucial for achieving a light, fluffy, and perfectly smooth texture. The mixture should become glossy and well incorporated.
Pour into Mold
Line a small square or rectangular baking pan (approximately 15×15 cm / 6×6 inches) with parchment paper. Pour the chocolate banana mixture into the prepared pan and spread it evenly with a spatula. Tap the pan gently on the counter to release any air bubbles.
Chill and Set
Place the pan in the refrigerator and chill for 2-3 hours, or until the fudge is completely firm and set. For faster results, you can place it in the freezer for about 1 hour.
Cut and Serve
Once set, remove the fudge from the pan using the parchment paper. Cut into small squares or rectangles using a sharp knife. For clean cuts, wipe the knife between each slice.
Store Properly
Keep the fudge squares in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to 1 month.
