If you like these share, pin, tell a friend! :)
I've been eating low-carb off and on for almost 20 years! (Man I am old!). I have had great results with weight loss and maintenance but I have a HUGE sweet tooth. I have been making chocolate pecan bark, (low-carb of course) to satisfy my sweet tooth but I needed a change! I had leftover ricotta from my Italian stuffed chicken breast and threw the ricotta in the mix as an after thought so it wouldn't go to waste. This recipe is pretty adaptable. Substitute the butters for different kinds (peanut, almond, cashew, sunflower, etc). Omit the ricotta if you want but trust me when I say it is yummy!
Ok guys, try this and let me know what you think... the best part of the recipe is.... (aside from the super awesome flavor) 0.83 net carbs!!!
