Chocolate Cake Cookies

These soft, crumbly cookies will put a smile on your face with the first bite. They’re almost bitter with their smokey flavour, yet sweet enough to feel like you’re getting a treat. A low-carb, chocolatey treat. I used only egg whites, instead of whole eggs, because I had them left…

Chocolate Coconut No-bake Cookies

Another recipe dedicated to my fabulous friend, TN. We are thinking of you ✌? Chewy, crunchy, and almost sticky, these cookies are simply delicious. Be wary, though - you’ll want a glass of milk near by when you take a bite. They’re filled with fibre, low in carbohydrates, and have…

Almond Butter Fudge Bites

I got the idea for this recipe from Chocolate Covered Katie. She has some amazing recipes on her (vegan) blog, and when I saw her version of this, I knew I had to make it. Oh, and what a pleasure it was! I added cinnamon and vanilla to my version,…

Coconut Coffee Dough Truffles

This recipe is dedicated to TN - we love you, girl! These coconutty morsels are delicious straight from the fridge - cold, with bite - as well as thawed slightly, so they’re creamy and doughy. Coat with sesame seeds for Asian-style crunch, or coconut oil chocolate (equal parts of coconut…

Cheesecake Chocolate Eggs

This delicious concoction is sort of like cheesecake batter, crossed with creamy frozen cookie dough, rolled into an Easter egg form. Seriously. Who can say no to low-carb now? These lovely little ‘fat-bombs’ don’t just fill up your stomach - they…

Instant Ganache (for one!)

I love chocolate ganache - that smooth, velvety cream laced with the darkest of cocoa dreams. Usually, though, it takes a while for the mixture to gain that thick glossiness. Not this stuff. A few seconds of stirring, and you have a cute little bowl of bliss. Eat it sprinkled…

Cinnamon and Cacao Cream

Looking for a quick, low-carb dessert with creaminess and crunch? Now you’re looking at one. I didn’t sweeten mine, but feel free to add stevia, dextrose, or rice malt syrup. I made mine in the half-filled cream bottle, shaking until it was whipped, but you can be nicely sophisticated and…

Chocolate Mint Frosting Cream

Who likes the occasional sweet treat first thing in the morning? Guilty. Who enjoys chocolate before midday? Guilty. Who eats frosting for a healthy and balanced breakfast? Definitely guilty. I’m starting low-carb living again, a sort of ‘New Years resolution’ that won’t endure the entire year. That means fat, fat,…

Mocha Bliss Balls

Crunchy, creamy, small, and sweet, these treats will knock the socks off your feet. Cashews provide healthy protein, fat, and carbohydrates, as well as minerals like magnesim, copper, and manganese. I add a mere spoonful of rice malt syrup (or a pinch of stevia) to my mix because, truthfully, these…
