Vegan Gluten Free Choc Coconut Fudge!

This fudge was very popular at the Festival, I didn't make it though it was made by Catherine who also gave a talk on a book she is writing about the history of vegetarianism in NZ. So here's the recipe, I tried this fudge and it was sooo good.

Here is the recipe - quantities are a bit approximate as i tend to guess
rather than measure ...

Ingredients:
one and 1/2 cup Simple brand gluten free flour (you can use wheat flour if
not gluten free)
1/2 cup to 1 cup dried coconut
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 cup cocoa
2 large tablespoons raspberry jam
125 g vegan margarine
1/2 cup raw sugar


Melt margarine, cocoa, sugar and jam in a saucepan, until sugar dissolved.
Allow to cool slightly, then mix in dry ingredients - should be slightly wet
without being totally runny. Spread about1 cm thick on a greased tray (baking paper is good too, and you can usually reuse it). Bake at 180 C for
15-20 mins or till cooked. Ice with chocolate icing (olivani, cocoa, lemon
juice, sugar) while still warm. Enjoy!

Thanks to Catherine for sharing this wonderful recipe!!
