[QUOTE="Jem, post: 35522, member: 11146"] [b]Re: Low Carb Recipes.[/b] Coconut Chocolate Stuff ... or "Almond Bark" by Rose Elliott! 100 grammes coconut oil (Always use virgin pressed) 100 grammes ground almonds (I use a blend of low carb ground nuts - including macadamia nuts!) 25 grammes pure raw cocoa powder 25 grammes granulated sweetener of choice (I use xylitol) Melt coconut oil (this doesn't take long) Throw in cocoa and mix well so you have chocolate oil Stir in sweetener and allow to soften / disolve (whatever your chosen sweetener does!) Stir in nuts Mix it all really well and scoop/pour into plastic tub and allow to cool (coolest part of fridge) for at least 90 minutes When set, cut and leave another few minutes before serving If you want to eat chunks like fudge use a slightly smaller tub or if you want chocolate-like slabs use a large flat tub Originally from Rose Elliots Low Carb Vegetarian (an excellent book) I adapted the recipe slightly BENEFITS: * zero impact on blood sugar * beneficial compounds in coconut oil (yes the fat is saturated but it's the right molecule) * beneficial compounds in cocoa * almonds are known to reduce cholesterol * tastes amazing * unbelievably fast and easy to make * makes 21 large servings ENJOY ... I do! Jem xoxoxoxox EDIT TO ADD: Quantity --- Food --- Calories --- Fat --- Protein --- Carb 100 grms - coconut oil - 900 - 100 - 0 - 0 100 grms - ground almonds - 615 - 55.8 - 21.1 - 6.9 20 grms - cocoa - 64 - 4.34 - 3.7 - 2.3 20 grms - Xylitol - 48 - 0 - 0 - 20 total - 1627 - 160.14 - 24.8 - 29.2 (21) serving - 77.5 - 7.6 - 1.2 - 1.4 [/QUOTE]
