I was playing around in the kitchen yesterday and stumbled upon a low-carb chocolate dessert recipe that should fit within ANYBODY'S low-carb plan. If you need a quick chocolate fix on your low-carb diet, then this will do the trick! ENJOY!
JIMMY'S ONE-MINUTE LOW-CARB CHOCOLATE DELIGHT1 50mL bottle of your favorite flavor of DaVinci Syrups (I used Irish Cream!)
1-2 Tablespoons of Hershey's Cocoa (I LOVE Special Dark!)
1-2 packets of your favorite sweetener (You can use Splenda, but I used erythritol in my recipe!) Gather all of your ingredients and a small bowl and spoon.
Pour the DaVinci Syrup into the bowl.
Next scoop out 1-2 Tablespoons of the cocoa. Use more to make it thicker or less for a thinner consistency.
Then add your sweetener. Erythritol worked great for my recipe, but so will Splenda, stevia, or any other artificial sweetener that you love.
Stir this yummy concoction slowly with a spoon. If you do it too fast, the cocoa will spill on the counter.
Be sure to break up any bubbles or pockets of the cocoa so that it all gets thoroughly drenched. Otherwise, you could get some unsweetened cocoa in your mouth which isn't very pleasant! :S
After about 30 seconds of stirring, scraping the sides of the bowl often, you should have a nice smooth, velvety chocolate mixture that resembles melted chocolate. Ooh la la!
Oh, man, just look at that--it'll make you slap your momma silly, I'm telling you. But now it's time for the taste test...
Mmmmmm...did I die and go to chocolate heaven or what?! WOO WEE, that's so good! I even got some dribbling down my bottom lip. Hee hee!
What pray tell is the nutritional lowdown on this decadent chocolate dessert? This is the BEST part:
FAT--.5g
CARBS--2-3g (depending on your sweetener)
CALORIES--40
If you just have to have something quick that's a little sweet and chocolately to eat when you are livin' la vida low-carb, then this stuff is da BOMB!
For a twist on the dessert eaten at room temperature, try microwaving it for 15-20 seconds for a luscious hot melted chocolate or freezing it for a fudge-like consistency. Play around with it using different DaVinci syrups and sweeteners until you find something that suits your tastes.
I promise you it's good. Let me know what you think about it if you try it! ;)
