Dr Jockers Comments:
This recipe is loaded with good fats, anti-oxidants and clean protein for an amazingly healthy dessert. It tastes and smells incredible and the whole family will enjoy this one. It is like a Reece’s Peanut Butter cup, but with much healthier ingredients. I prefer to use almond butter or macadamia nut butter which are probably most nutrient dense and least inflammatory nut butters.
You can use whatever natural sweetener you like, but to keep it keto you will need to stick with monk fruit, erythritol, xylitol or stevia. If you would like a special discount on the monk fruit that I use, you can find it through Lakanto here and put in the coupon code Jockers for 20% off of your purchase. This discount sure beats buying these products at the health food store or on Amazon. This company has many fantastic keto approved products so try them out!
Raw cacao is a great energy booster that enhances circulation and provides a mega dose of antioxidants. Ground chia seed gives us highly bioavailable protein, essential fats, key antioxidants and prebiotic fiber. Give it a shot and let us know what you think!
Is that a typo that one cup is a serving? Do you mean one twelfth of the recipe?
Yes one fudge cup would be a serving!
Do you have a substitute for the maple syrup? I checked out the ingredients and it has corn in it, not organic, which means it is GMO and will not be used in my kitchen. In fact, it doesn’t look like any of the ingredients in the keto syrup are organic. I am recovering from cancer so that is a deal breaker for me.
Hi Uschi, The Choc Zero syrup that I recommend contains liquid vegetable fiber, natural maple flavor, natural vanilla flavor, monk fruit extract and natural color from only non-GMO sources. You could also use Lakanto syrup.
