Process

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Line a small baking dish with wax paper, covering the sides of the inside of the dish so you can easily lift out the finished fudge.
In a saucepan, bring the coconut milk to a simmer over medium heat. Simmer for 3-5 minutes - avoid scorching.
Add 2 Tablespoons coconut oil to the saucepan and stir until it melts. Add the chocolate chips. When they begin melting, use a whisk to stir the mixture until it has no lumps.
Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla. Pour into the baking pan, spreading it evenly across the bottom of the pan with the back of a spoon. Freeze until firm - about an hour.
In a large mixing bowl, mix together the almond butter, 1/4 cup coconut oil, pumpkin puree, maple syrup, cinnamon and salt. Stir until smooth.
Remove the chocolate layer from the freezer and confirm that's it's firm. Pour the pumpkin mixture on top of the chocolate layer, spreading evenly with the back of a spoon. Arrange the pecans on top of the pumpkin layer, being careful not to press them into the mixture. Place the finished fudge into the freezer until solid, 2-3 hours.
Lift the fudge out of the pan, remove the wax paper, and cut into small pieces. Serve immediately.
