Title: Got a sweet tooth and on low carb diet?? Not so "Chunky Monkey"
Post by: TMB on March 18, 2017, 10:33:05 PM: I started making shakes out of this :thumbup:

Freeze this with powder peanut butter and shaved pieces of chocolate (see recipe below )

3 Tbs non-sweet coco powder
1/2 cup powder peanut butter
1/4 cup coconut oil (All ingredients can be found at Wal-Mart or other stores)
4 Tbs butter
1/8 tsp vanilla extract
12 drops liquid stevia (or) 2 Tbs of Splenda (if you rather use it)

Mix all ingredients then microwave just enough to melt and blend (about 30 to 40 seconds) then pour into molds and then freeze
Read in about 30 mins to eat

Mix powder peanut butter , chocolate and protein drink in a freezer safe cup. Place in freezer and freeze for about 30 to 40 mins stir then back into freezer till set

Not bad for very low cab ice-cream

Can you clear up a question I have about the recipe. Is the PB powder mixed with the chocolate ingredients, or is it mixed with the protein shake at the end along with the chocolate chunks/shavings? I was not clear on that as the recipe talks about mixing everything and setting in the form, then the next section mentioned the PB powder and chocolate being mixed with the shake like it was separate.

I've got the ingredients and was wanting to give this a go. It would be a variation as I have chocolate protein shake and not banana, but chocolate in chocolate should work too!

It takes a little time for the shake to set up so I stir it ever so often to make it a smoothie texture

Thanks. That makes sense.
