Looking for fudge recipe
Hi Jolene,
I keep a small file of recipes on index cards and looked thru them for you. Here are 3 recipes calling for protein powder, the first two came from www.lowcarbluxury.com; unfortunately, I have no idea where i got the other one. I hope you have fun experimenting with recipes until you find the one you are looking for. Good luck, Sue
Nutty Fudge Bars (8 Bars)
2 1/3 cup vanilla protein powder
1 ounce square unsweetened chocolate
1/2 cup butter
4 ounces cream cheese
1 ounce chopped walnuts
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon peanut butter
1/4 cup splenda
Melt butter, cream cheese, peanut butter, and chocolate. Mix well. Add splenda and vanilla, mix well again. Now add nuts and portein powder and mix. Mix well so that the powder dissolves into the mixture. Place in baking pan, flatten and refrigerate, a rectangle casserole dish works well here. Cut into 8 bars.

hi jolene,
sorry probably too late to make this for christmas......but i found this posted by Teri? i think....
Peanut Butter
Chocolate Fudge
Ingredients:
8 oz cream cheese
1 cup Splenda
1 oz. unsweetened baker's chocolate
1/4 cup heavy cream
4 teaspoons peanut butter
Melt cream cheese and peanut butter in microwave for approx 2 minutes, stopping and stirring at 1 minute intervals. Melt chocolate in separate bowl until creamy. Combine chocolate with cream cheese mixture and whisk in Splenda and cream. Pour into buttered glass pan and chill at least 4 hours.
Cut in squares and enjoy. (This recipe yields a more "gooey" fudge than traditional fudge, but if you want more uniform squares, place pan in freezer for 30 minutes before cutting.)
Cut into 16 pieces -- 3.8 grams net carbohydrate per piece.
Teri
good luck,
