Ingredients
2 T butter
1 (1 oz) square unsweetened baking chocolate
1/3 c full fat ricotta cheese
2 scoops chocolate Designer Protein Powder
1 t vanilla
10 packets Splenda
½ c toasted slivered almonds
Directions:
- Melt the butter and chocolate over very low heat or in microwave.
- Stir in the cheese, vanilla, Splenda and protein powder.
- Mix well and stir in nuts.
- Let cool a few minutes, and then drop by teaspoonfuls onto a foil lined cookie sheet.
- Freeze
*Tip: NI will change based on protein powder used. The protein powder gives it the texture of sugar-laden fudge. The chocolate gives it the richness of real fudge. You could use toasted or untoasted nuts but I had almonds on hand and like them toasted.
I have used just vanilla protein powder before but then used a heaping spoonful of cocoa powder. It still worked out great.
