Low Carb Dessert Recipe - Peanut Butter Cookies

These flourless, low carb cookies rock!

Low Carb Peanut Butter Cookies

· 1 cup no sugar added peanut butter, creamy or crunchy
· 1 1/3 cups baking sugar replacement (I use Splenda)
· 1 egg
· 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a large baking sheet.

In a mixing bowl, combine the low carb peanut butter, 1 cup of the Splenda, the egg, and vanilla, and stir well with a spoon. Roll the dough into balls the size of walnuts. Place the balls on the prepared baking sheet. With a fork dipped in Splenda, press a crisscross design on each cookie. (I experimented and added some sugar free chocolate to some of the cookies as seen in the picture and they turned out great!) Bake for 12 minutes, remove from the oven, and sprinkle the cookies with some of the remaining Splenda. Cool slightly before removing from pan, enjoy!

Low Carb Mocha Cheesecake Dessert Recipe

Low Carb Mocha Cheesecake

4- 8oz packages of cream cheese
5 large eggs at room temperature
1 cup Splenda
½ cup brewed coffee
4 1/2 tablespoons Hershey’s chocolate powder (no sugar added)


Take the cream cheese and eggs out of the refrigerator about 45 minutes before you begin mixing to soften the cream cheese and take the chill off the eggs.

When you are ready to begin, start by cracking the eggs into a small bowl making sure not to use the rim of the bowl to crack the eggs to avoid getting shells in the bowl. Set bowl with eggs aside. With the coffee slightly warm mix in chocolate powder until dissolved and set aside.

Add cream cheese to mixer and mix on high until cream cheese is smooth. Continue mixing and add the Splenda. Once the Splenda is incorporated into the cream cheese, stop the mixer and use a rubber spatula to scrape down the sides of the mixer bowl to insure even mixing. With the mixer back on high add half of the coffee and chocolate mixture and set the rest aside for the topping. Now add the eggs one at a time letting mixer work in the one egg before adding the next. Again, stop the mixer and use a rubber spatula to scrape down the sides of the mixing bowl. Now you are ready to pour the mix into the greased spring form pan.

Bake on a preheated 350 degree oven for 60-70 minutes or until low carb cheesecake is set in the middle. Cool for an hour, add low carb mocha ganache (recipe follows) and than chill for at least six hours, this low carb dessert is best served the next day.


Low Carb Mocha Ganache

¼ cup heavy whipping cream
3 tablespoons Hershey’s chocolate powder (no sugar added)
¼ cup of chocolate and coffee mixture (leftover from cheesecake recipe)

Heat heavy whipping cream over low heat, remove from heat and add chocolate powder (you may want to sift it as you add it to avoid lumps) stir and put back on low heat and continue to stir until all chocolate is thoroughly mixed. Heat until ganache thickens. Add coffee mixture, mix in and heat for one minute than remove from heat. Let the low carb mocha ganache cool then pour over cooled cheesecake and chill immediately.

Quick Low Carb Dessert Recipe

Like almost everyone else, the holidays knocked my low carb diet off track but I am right back on it now!! This is a very simple low carb dessert recipe that I have posted before but it is the one really quick and easy low carb dessert that tastes great, perfect for getting back on track! The quick recipe follows, the picture also has some sugar free whipped cream that I "whipped up" from heavy whipping cream and splenda:

1 8oz package of cream cheese

1 Tablespoon unsweetened chocolate powder

3 Tablespoons Splenda

Put the cream cheese in a microwavable dish and heat on high for 15 seconds. Add chocolate and Splenda and mix until thoroughly blended. Now you can just stick the bowl in the fridge with some plastic wrap on top and wait until it firms and enjoy.

Low-Carb Chocolate Coconut Macadamias Nut Cookies Recipe

Low Carb Ingredients:

· 5 Tablespoons coconut oil or butter
· ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
· ¼ cup cream
· 1 ½ teaspoon vanilla
· ½ teaspoon salt
· 1 cup sugar equivalent in sugar substitute (I like Splenda, but can use any)
· 4 eggs
· ½ cup coconut flour (I used Aloha Nu brand in analysis)
· ½ cup unsweetened coconut
· 36 almond or macadamia nut halves


Preparation:
Preheat oven to 350 F.
1) Melt butter in bowl or 1 quart measuring cup -- you can make the whole recipe in the same container that way.
2) Whisk in cocoa powder until blended. Whisk in cream, salt, vanilla, and sweetener.
3) Taste. This is the point where you want to get the right amount of sweetener for your taste. I tried this recipe with two different cocoa powders -- Hershey and Ghirardelli. I found that I needed more sweetener for the darker Ghirardelli.
4) Whisk the eggs in and beat until they are well-blended. Add coconut flour and blend well, and finish with the dried coconut. Combine well and let sit for 5 minutes. The coconut will absorb most of the liquid.
5) Prepare cookie sheets, either by greasing well, covering with parchment paper, or a silicone baking mat.
6) Drop batter by rounded teaspoons (batter will be about 1½ inches across). Put half an almond or macadamia nut on the top of each, and push slightly to "anchor."
7) Bake for about 12 minutes, until cookies are set and just beginning to brown on bottom.
8) Let cool on pan for about 10 minutes. Remove. When fully cool, store in airtight container.

Makes three dozen low carb cookies.

Nutritional Information (with macadamia nuts): Each cookie has a little over half a gram effective carbs plus 2 grams fiber, 2 grams protein, 5 grams fat, and 51 calories.

My Low Carb Dessert Recipe Calls For Coconut Flour, What Is That?

Coconut flour is finely ground, dried organic coconut meat and has fewer digestible carbs (known as net carbs) than any other flour. Coconut Flour can replace 15-25% of other flours in most standard recipes making any recipe lower in carbs. Coconut Flour is gluten-free, hypoallergenic and contains the highest percentage of dietary fiber found in any flour at 61%. I am going to post some low carb dessert recipes using coconut flour soon!

Low Carb Summer Dessert Recipe

I was lookin for a low carb dessert recipe that was refeshing in the summer heat and found this on "Everyday Italian" and just changed the sugar to Spelenda, cutting the carbs in half!

LOW CARB FROZEN MASCARPONE AND STRAWBERRY GRANITA


1 cup water
1/2 cup Splenda, plus 1 tablespoon
1/2 cup chopped fresh mint leaves
2 cups chopped strawberries, plus 1 cup finely chopped
1/2 cup mascarpone cheese
3 tablespoons lemon juice
Pinch salt

Place the water, 1/2 Splenda, and mint in a small pan and bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally to help dissolve the Splenda. Let simmer over low heat to steep the mint. Then strain the mint from the simple syrup. Discard the mint. In a food processor combine 2 cups of strawberries with the remaining 1 tablespoon of Splenda. Run the machine to puree the strawberries. Add the mascarpone cheese, lemon juice, and salt. Run the machine until the mascarpone cheese is fully incorporated. Add the mint simple syrup and run the machine to combine. Place the strawberry mixture in an 8 by 8-inch glass dish and place the dish in the freezer. The low carb mixture will take about 4 hours to freeze.

To serve, use a fork to scrape the low carb Granita. Spoon the mixture into chilled bowls. Top with the finely chopped strawberries and serve immediately.

Low Carb Pot De Crème Dessert Recipe

Pot de crème is the name for the individual lidded porcelain jars or pots that this custard is traditionally baked in. This low carb French custard is richer than American custard due to using egg yolks instead of American who use whole eggs.


Preheat oven to 325F

6 large egg yolks
1/3 to ½ Splenda
2 cups half and half
1teaspoon low carb vanilla


Whisk egg yolks and Splenda until just blended. Stirring, bring the half and half to a simmer in a small saucepan. Gradually whisk the hot milk into the egg yolk mixture. Strain through a fine-mess sieve into a bowl or large measure with a pouring lip. Skim off any foam with a spoon. Stir in vanilla.

Pour the mixture into six 4-ounce pot-de-crème cups or ramekins. Put the lids on the cups or seal each ramekin with a snug-fitting piece of aluminum foil to prevent a skin from forming. Bake in a water bath for 40 to 60 minutes or until set but still quivery in the center when the cups are shaken. Take the cups or ramekins out of the water bath and let cool for 30 minutes, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving these low carb custards.



Tips for custards doneness: (low carb or otherwise!)

Most custard should be removed from the oven as soon as the center appears quivery, like firm gelatin when the cup is gently shaken. Completely firm custard is overcooked and will turn slightly grainy.

To be doubly sure that the custard is ready, tilt the cup up at a 45 degrees angle. The center should remain firmly in place without flowing.

Insert a knife two-thirds of the way from the side of the cup toward the center. The knife should come out clean or with just a tiny smudge of low carb custard adhering.
