Interesting combination of flavors and a nice little ice cube treat.
Fills you because you eat each ice cube individually so it takes longer to let it settle.
Very rich and creamy treat. nutrition info does not include toppings.
Rich, thick smoothie that is easy to make and will fill you up! :D I have put it in the dessert section because thats when I have it, but it would be a great breakfast smoothie too.
Adapted from paleOMG (http://bit.ly/yTaiA2) by substituting 1/2 unsweetened applesauce for the raw honey called for in the recipe.
For 16 brownies, this comes out to 6.6 net carbs per brownie.
If you leave in the honey, it has 14.3 net carbs per brownie.
**This recipe counts as TWO servings.**
For people not afraid of good fats, this is a low carb adaptation of a recipe submitted by SparkPeople user SPITFIRE12 (http://bit.ly/zP70mt).
I substituted almond flour for the all-purpose flour, one whole egg for the two egg whites, Truvia* for the sugar, heavy whipping cream for the skim milk, and coconut oil for the applesauce.
You might also try macadamia nut oil, if you prefer, without changing the carb count. This also switches much of the fat from saturated to monounsaturated. I prefer the coconut myself.
The original recipe had about 200 calories and more than 40 net carbs per serving.
This one clocks in at almost 400 calories but only 2.7 net carbs per serving.

* If you want, you can use 8 packets of Truvia. I suggest using 4 and 4 of another type of sugar substitute because, in my experience, mixing sweeteners offers a rounder taste and a synergy (the combined effect of two together is greater than either individually; 1A+1B=3) not found when using a single type. IOW, using 4 + 4 makes it sweeter than using 8 of a single sweetener.

I did not have the powdered erythritol or liquid sweeteners used in the original recipe so I substituted packets of Truvia and Splenda.
A fantastic cheesecake, rich and creamy, altered for use in Atkins and other low-carb diets.
(The original is the same but with 2 cups sugar in place of the sweetener and with a standard graham cracker crust.)
When made in a 10-inch springform pan and cut into 16 servings, this delicious cheesecake has only 3.6 net carbs per serving.
I am counting net carbs as:
Total carbs - fiber + sweetener carbs
Truvia counts for zero carbs because it is made with non-glycemic stevia and erythritol.
Each Splenda packet is one carb. So is each Equal packet. Together they add 8 carbs to the entire cheesecake so that comes out to 0.5 carbs per slice.
SO . . . 4.1 total carbs - 1.0 fiber + 0.5 sweetener carbs = 3.6 carbs per slice.
=====
If you make it without the crust (omitting all the nuts and the almond flour), total carbs drops to 2.4 per slice.
A delicious and simple low-carb dessert recipe I got from my German uncle.
Only 1.8 carbs per serving.
I adapted this recipe from the Lighter Side of Low Carb (http://bit.ly/IEJcX5). In changing this recipe, I:
removed the walnuts
added vanilla extract
used Truvia for the sugar substitute (with the carbs from the erythritol netted out since it is non-glycemic)
changed the # servings from 42 to 20 (I make bigger cookies than they do)
substituted some chopped up Divine Chocolate 85% dark chocolate bar for their Ghirardelli 60% dark chocolate morsels
They still come out to just 2.0 net carbs per cookie.
(4.1 total carbs, 2.1 fiber, 0.5 sugars)
"These cookies are not Atkins induction friendly, but they are low carb, gluten free and sugar free, and vegetarian friendly."
A cream cheese version of a delicious and simple low-carb dessert recipe I got from my German uncle.
Only 1.1 carbs per serving.
yummy cookies from a 100 year old recipe
One of my favorite holiday cookies! I've cut the recipe in half, since the original recipe made a lot of cookies!
This is a simple, delicious, nutritious breakfast/dessert/snack. Nutritional info is with vanilla, but when I'm craving chocolate I use the chocolate-flavored Greek yogurt for a really decadent-tasting treat!
One of my favorite holiday cookies! I cut the recipe in half, for convenience. Enjoy!
This is the original recipe...but I am determined to find a healthier version! Keep checking back for updates!
I found the original recipe online, and modified to be healthier! Reduced butter and sugar, replaced sugar in cream cheese with honey, halved servings sizes. Delicious, and satisfying without the guilt!
