PEANUT BUTTER NUTELLA
This is a pre-maintenance/maintenance style treat because
of the peanut butter I used. I used
Skippy Creamy Natural® peanut
butter. It has the same carbs as
Smuckers® Natural, but it does have some sugar in it,
whereas Smuckers does not. I tried it
with the latter peanut butter, but the consistency was wrong, although good.
1/2 cup Skippy® Natural
Creamy (125 mL)
Peanut Butter Spread
1/2 cup whipping cream (125 mL)
(first start with 1/3 cup and work your way up)
(first start with 1/3 cup and work your way up)
1 tbsp cocoa, OR carob powder (15 mL)
1 tsp coconut oil (5 mL)
In
food processor or blender, process peanut butter, whipping cream, cocoa, OR carob
powder, coconut oil, and sweetener until smooth. Refrigerate.

SMUCKERS® PEANUT BUTTER CHOCOLATE FUDGEY CONFECTION
I tried making Peanut Butter Nutella with the Smucker’s
Natural peanut butter, but the consistency was wrong, although good. I added a couple of tablespoons of whey
protein powder to it and it set up in the refrigerator after several
hours. That gave me the idea to freeze
it. This turned into a tasty fudgy
treat. Bonus that it is so easy to make! Nice with a cup of tea in the morning or when you are hungry. It definitely satiates the appetite. I have other fudge recipes that I like way better, but this was still worth sharing as it is so no-fuss to make. This is not quite fudge either...but anyway, see if you like it. I didn't waste it, put it that way. ;)
