Candice's Low Carb Coconut Stack (1 serving)
 
Candice's Low Carb Coconut Stack
(1 serving)

I don't do many of these kind of recipes, 1 serving size. But I was craving something chocolate and did not want to end up with lots left over. So that is why the individual serving size.

This is a pretty basic recipe. I'm sure there are many out there on the low carb forums. This is just my version I came up right now. It's quick, easy to make and most important is yummy.

Recipe can be adjust to make more then 1 serving if you want.

Yum.

I just made two. Gave one to my dd. She wasn't impressed due to the fact that the butter wasn't quite blended in so she had a hunk of butter in her mouth. Think I will try again with coconut oil.

Thanks. I am always looking for recipes that are for one or two servings at the most otherwise I eat til I am sick. Portion control issues.

Double yum! I made mine w/ tbsp CO instead of butter and a few drops of vanilla. Definitely hit the spot. :thup:

I tried a bit of erithrytol in it & 1 drop sucralose - the e precipitated... Even that tasted good, but wasn't the idea! Trying to learn where I can use the darned stuff to it's advantage (I don't bake much).

did you melt your butter?

Mmmm. I'll bet if you toasted the coconut in the oven first, it would be really good that way as well. Thanks, Candice!

I've made these several times before your posts, but I added coconut oil with the butter and some almond pieces. Oh it is so good. I just had one from my freezer that I made last night.
My butter melts with the coconut oil. By the way, is it okay to melt coconut oil in the microwave? The bottle I bought mine in is so difficult to melt in under water. I will admit, yours looks chocolatety.
