I have one of my never before released delicous Lean-Body desserts that helps to satisfy my sweet tooth while at the same time receiving TONS of quality nutrition.
It's a exclusive type of healthy peanut-butter-fudge! If you don't like nuts or peanut butter, you can merely ditch those ingredients and make a chocolate-only version. Pay attention, because there are special ingredients that make this a LOT healthier for you than usual fudge.
I will say that this dessert / snack is not low-calorie per se, but it is rich with quality healthy fats, some protein, heaps of antioxidants, and is relatively low in sugar, while also containing a good dose of fiber. In general, it's a great snack that helps limit your hunger, fuel your muscles, loads you up on protective antioxidants, and quells that sweet tooth that regularly makes you over do it on refined sweets.
Here is your Lean-Body Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge:
-3/4 cup organic coconut milk (not the watered down "light" variety which just
replaces some of the healthy cocnut fat with water)
-1 Chocolate Bar (3-5 oz. bar works well) of quality extra dark chocolate (look
for at least 70-75% cocoa content on the label)
-4-5 tablespoons of peanut butter or your beloved nut butter (almond butter,
cashew butter, macadamia butter, etc)
-3/4 cup raisins (optional)
-1/2 cup whole almonds (optional)
-2 Tbsp raw wheat germ
-2 Tbsp rice bran (usually only available at health food stores)
-1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
-A little stevia powder to sweeten.
Begin by adding the coconut milk (cans of organic coconut milk are available at most health food stores and perhaps even your grocery store) and vanilla extract to a small saucepan on very low heat. Break up the extra dark chocolate bar into chunks and add into pot. Add the nut butter and the stevia, and continuously stir until it all melts together into a smooth mixture.
Then add the raisins, almonds, wheat germ, and rice bran. Then stir until fully blended.pour the fudge mixture onto some waxed paper in a dish and place in the fridge until it cools and solidifies together. Place in a closed container or cover with foil in fridge to avoid it from drying out.
Enjoy small squares for dessert and for small snacks throughout the day. This is about as good as it gets for a healthy yet delicious treat!
