  • 5 Minute Chocolate and peanut butter Midnight Snack!!!

    Just right now I was REALLY craving something sweet and I opened up my panty door....My will-power told me not to eat the cream-filled oatmeal cookies sitting on my second shelf and the caramel brownie ice cream in my freezer.... So I decided to get creative and invent my own low-carb midnight snack. In my pantry I found some unsweetened Ghiradelli cocoa powder that my mom had used to make cookies last Christmas and sitting right next to it there was a box of Splenda. The light bulb above my head lit up and I decided to do something to conquer my cravings!! So here's what I did, and the outcome was surprisingly very satisfying!!:

    I whipped up about 2 tablespoons of margarine (The "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter kind...) with about 5 packets of Splenda . Then I poured in about 3 Tablespoons of the Ghiradelli unsweetened cocoa powder and just a splash of Half and Half (or milk if you want)....I whipped this all together and it turned into a frosting-like mixture. Then I got a few sticks of celery and spread Skippy's Low carb peanut butter onto it the celery sticks and put my newly invented chocolate frosting mixture on top of that! Yum...

    Thanks for posting Brit! I just want to comment that this is not proper for induction. Just don't want to confuse some of those who may be looking for a snack. Looks really yummy though!
