Please add me to the list! I started doing the low-carb thing a few weeks ago and am down 12#. Lots more to go, but it seems my husband is trying to help me this time. Usually when I go on a diet, he gives me the old "I love you just the way you are" line and then slips a Snickers into my briefcase. What a dear.
He makes dinner a couple times a week and last week he made fish. I'm not big on fish, but it was real good. He used talapia filets and put a little brown mustand on them and then encrusted them with crushed pistachios, parmigian cheese, and fresh basil from the garden. Yum yum!
Would someone let me know what post had the fudge?? I haven't gotten through all 700 posts and I REALLY need that one! ;-)
Give that big dude a big smooch from us!!
LOWCARB Peanutty Chocolate Fudge
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 6 pkt Splenda®, or any of a dozen other sweeteners on the market today.
- 1 oz. unsweetened chocolate
- 1/4 cup whipping or heavy cream
- 1 tsp. any quality peanut butter
1) Soften the cream cheese and peanut butter in microwave for approx. 2 minutes, stopping and stirring at 1 minute intervals.
2) Melt chocolate in separate bowl until creamy.
2) Combine chocolate with cream cheese mixture and whisk in sweetener and cream.
3) Pour into buttered or greased glass pan and chill at least 4 hours.
This recipe is really gooey, if you prefer a bit firmer and easier to cut cleanly.. freeze for about 30 min, then cut into squares and enjoy the hect out of them!
Cut into 16 pieces - 2.5 carbs per piece.
