Gluten-Free Vegan Chocolate Fudge Tarts

These Gluten-Free Vegan Chocolate Fudge Tarts can be made in about 10 minutes using only 7 clean ingredients.

This is the first recipe that I've made (with many more to come!) using a new organic natural sweetener called "D'Vash Organic Date Nectar".

I really, really love to use dates in my dessert recipes and smoothies because not only are they a natural sweetener, but they also contain fiber and potassium.

In the past, my go-to organic liquid sweetener has been maple syrup, but I'm so excited to start using date nectar and even revising some of my older recipes with it.

So far, it's been a perfect substitution for maple syrup in some of my existing recipes I've tried it in and even this new one that I just made.

It's much thicker than maple syrup and has a deeper flavor that isn't as sweet as maple syrup, which I really love.

And, I even have a special coupon code for you if you want to give it a try.  Just use code: DVASH_THFH to save 15% off your order by visiting the D'Vash website.

I enjoy supporting small businesses that are making a difference in the quality of food we buy and I hope you will too! 🙂
