Question Top 2 Sweet Treats????

Hey All!

I have not had much luck finding LC desserts that I'm satisfied with on my own.

I thought I'd come and ask you all for your TOP 2 Most Favoritest of Favorites LC Sweet Treats! I'm interested in yummy things other than "candy"

And please! It would help me out a great deal if you could either post the recipe or let me know where I can find the recipe-- OR if it is a mix or prepackaged product, where I can purchase it.

Thank you SOOOO MUCH!

Peace,
Star

"Frappucino type thing" - Blended ice, cream, sweetener with espresso, pure vanilla extract or cocoa that has been blended into a paste with boiling water

My own NY Style Cheesecake!

Ruth's Jello Cheesecake found here:

http://forum.lowcarber.org/showthre...&threadid=40834

My own concoction of 3 oz cream cheese, 1tsp unsweetened cocoa powder and 1 tsp Splenda. Smoosh together with a fork and eat with a spoon or chill and roll into balls to eat.

Since I am not such a good baker, my favorite sweet treats are a to die for store bought low carb cheesecake (made with Splenda) and secondly, fresh cantaloupe.

mmm... just two?

My favorite right now are the cinnamon and sugar pork rinds found in this forum. I melt butter and add splenda. I don't add as much cinnamon as others but I do add a little then throw in the pork rinds.

My second is my homemade swirly ice cream type thing. I take an unsweetened chocolate square and melt it. Mix in a little butter and splenda to taste. Then I take a tub of Cool Whip, and swirl the chocolate mixture throughout. Sometimes I add a small amount of peanut butter swirled through as well. Then I freeze the tub.

I don't eat a whole lot of it at a time. But it is as close to Ben and Jerry's as I could get without cheating.

p.s. The peanut butter cup recipe found in this forum also are a close third!!!

I think this is what they are talking about:

My own concoction of 3 oz cream cheese, 1tsp unsweetened cocoa powder and 1 tsp Splenda. Smoosh together with a fork and eat with a spoon or chill and roll into balls to eat.

Marlaine

But the Jello cheesecake is good too - I make it often.
