Birgit's Chocolate Creme OMG

Soobee · 08-27-2011, 07:15 AM

Birgit, I made your chocolate creme today. It is the best chocolate substance I have made since I started low carbing. I got this thick, dark, glossy, fabulous frosting which I used on my brownies. It took them over the top. Thank you for this recipe and all the others you have posted.

mmorris · 08-27-2011, 08:48 AM

Please post the recipe

slbbw · 08-27-2011, 09:18 AM

I've been rolling a ball in almond pieces every night for almost a week. Its my new daily chocolate treat (instead of buying LC "turtles"). I agree with you! Birgit is my new LC miracle worker!

I'm gonna have to try this. Printed out the recipe a couple days ago when I saw it on your site, Birgit. Sounds fantastic!

Thank you, :O)

I'm glad you're enjoying it! It's a favorite around here too

I made this last night and holy cow it was amazing! I'm a chocoholic and had pretty much decided that low carb desserts weren't worth it and I would just have to live without. It is THE BEST thing ever. I made it in my blender, used truvia instead of erythritol powder, and sour cream instead of HWC. amazing!!!!

Ginaaaaaa · 06-02-2012, 09:08 AM

I can't wait to try this. I just saved the recipe last night. All your recipes look amazing!! I especially want to try the graham crackers.

The chocolate cream would be good on the crackers I bet!!

netters272 · 06-02-2012, 06:30 PM

How did you make it with the truvia and sour cream

I WANT

dawnyama · 06-02-2012, 06:37 PM

Oh, this looks fabulous!!! Yum!!

nfowife · 06-02-2012, 08:59 PM

Truvia is an erythritol/stevia blend. I put it in the blender to make it more fine like a powder. Then I used 1/3 cup as it calls for of erythritol. I ended up adding an additional 4 drops of sweetleaf stevia as well. I subbed 2 tbsp of sour cream for HWC because I was out of HWC and that's what I had on hand. Worked fine!

SkeeterN · 06-05-2012, 05:26 PM

I want to try this.

mojave · 06-07-2012, 08:00 AM

Looks amazing :-)

tulipsandroses · 06-13-2012, 03:19 PM

So are we nuking the eggs or they stay raw?

nfowife · 06-16-2012, 04:33 PM

The coconut oil tempers them and cooks them so they don't stay raw. But you don't want them scrambled either. It doesn't taste "eggy" whatsoever, promise!

Heheher · 06-16-2012, 07:46 PM

Subbing

Idreamofweightloss · 06-16-2012, 08:56 PM

I need to buy some of that eyrtheriol. Keep meaning to I just hate that I gotta get it online.

Macc0021 · 06-19-2012, 10:40 AM

I just made this last night... used granular splenda... and it is fabulous! Quite dangerous though

It was pretty easy too -- I made it in my Bullet.

THANKS!!

jlp2009 · 06-24-2012, 05:21 AM

Idreamofweightloss, you might be able get erythritol locally at a health food store if you want to try it. It might be more expensive though.

graciejean · 06-24-2012, 06:26 AM

I only have splenda,will try that,thanks

pocahontas · 06-24-2012, 08:06 AM

The pics look almost like a ganache. I am going to try it as frosting for cupcakes. I used to make these high carb vanilla cupcakes with chocolate ganache frosting that everyone loved. I think I can pull off a LC version with this as the frosting! Thanks!
