CarbsPerServing:6g carbs total

Ingredients:
1 ounce unsweetened
baking chocolate -- or
semisweet
2 ounces Unsalted Butter
4 tablespoons Peanut
Butter1 tablespoon heavy cream
-- to taste, optional
Splenda to taste (optional if
using semisweetened)
4 ounces nuts -- ground or
finely chopped in grinder
How to Prepare:
Melt chocolate in Microwave
and stir, add butter and PB,
melt ans stir to combine.
Heat only util just melted.
Add cream and Splenda if
using. Grind nuts and stir
in.
Spread into large thin slab
on baking paper on a tray
and freeze for a couple of
hours. Cut into small
squares and store in bag or
box.. I get at least 40
squares less than 0.5g
each ! They are very rich so I
just find 1 or 2 a night are
enough to satisfy my sweet
craving. I eat them straight
from the freezer, they keep
their ?crisp? that way.
Notes for UK dieters
(Sainsbury's Luxury
Continental Belgian Dark
has 24g for whole 100g
bar).
Waitrose?s only has 32g so
it?s not bad and I find I do
not need the Splenda with
it. Lindt 85% Excellence is
also good
NOTES : Counts for
Splenda not included in
totals.
