LOW CARB CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER FUDGE Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by aerin8

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup of butter or part coconut oil
1/2 cup natural peanut butter, plain or chunky
2 ounces cream cheese, softened to room temperature
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Liquid sugar substitute equal to 1 cup sugar (I used EZ-Sweetz)
1/3 cup vanilla whey protein powder, such as MRM brand
1/3 cup cocoa powder
Dash of salt
1/4 cup walnuts, chopped (optional)

Steps:

  • Butter a 5x7-inch baking dish or pan and line with parchment or wax paper, leaving an overhang on two sides to aid removal. Butter paper also. Melt the butter and peanut butter together in a medium saucepan over low heat or on low setting in microwave for 1 to 2 minutes. Mix together well. In a second bowl, beat cream cheese to soften, and then beat into peanut butter mixture until blended and smooth. Stir in vanilla and sugar substitute. In another bowl, whisk together the whey protein powder, cocoa powder, and salt until blended. Sift dry ingredients into wet ingredients and beat until smooth. Stir in nuts, if using. Spread fudge in prepared pan and chill or freeze until set. Remove fudge from pan and cut into 20 squares. (It is very rich, so I recommend keeping the servings small.) Store in refrigerator or freezer. May be eaten frozen. Makes 20 servings. Calories: 107; Protein: 1.4 g; Fat: 11.1 g; Net Carbs: 0.5 g

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my fudge turned out really crumbly. I think I might have used the wrong kind of peanut butter.

This fudge is a bit too expensive to make. I think I'll stick to buying it from the store.

I used a sugar-free chocolate bar to make this fudge and it turned out great. It's a great way to enjoy chocolate without all the sugar.

This fudge is a bit too soft for my taste. I think I would have preferred it to be a bit firmer.

I'm not a big fan of peanut butter, but I really enjoyed this fudge. The chocolate flavor is really dominant.

This fudge is a great make-ahead dessert. I made it a few days ahead of time and it was still just as good.

I was skeptical about how good a low-carb fudge could be, but I was pleasantly surprised. This fudge is just as good as the regular kind, but without all the guilt.
