Giddy Peppermint Patties Reviews Date of last review 2 Fri June 12, 2009 Recommended By Average Price Average Rating 50% of reviewers None indicated 3.0 Description: Ingredients: 1 stick butter 1 ounce unsweetened baking chocolate 8 splenda packets 2 teaspoons unsweetened cocoa powder -- (2 to 3) 1 teaspoon peppermint extract -- pure - to taste How To Prepare: Heat butter and chocolate in microwave until liquid form; try not to boil the mixture! Mix well then add the splenda 4 packages at a time. Mix well! Add the cocoa to make a thicker consistency. I usually use between 2 and 3 tablespoons. Then add the peppermint to taste. Start with a little...taste it and add more if you like! Put in muffin tin with papers, 1 tablespoon per paper. Any leftovers add evenly. Put in freezer for at least an hour! YUM!! The amount of carbs will vary on the amount of cocoa and peppermint you use. On average about 1.5 - 2 grams of carbs per patty! ENJOY! Carbs per serving - include all nutritional information if known: 16g carbs total Effort (Easy, Average, Difficult): Easy Tammy Marie Junior LCF Member   Posts: 1 Registered: January 2004 Location: maryland see this user's products

No | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 3    Positive aspects of the product (pros): Cons: tasted bitter Yuck! Mine tasted bitter. I followed the recipe but put 2 Tablespoons of Cocoa powder. I used about 3/4 teaspoon peppermint. The recipe is confusing about how much to add. Maybe someone can give me some advice about how to make this taste better. They did come out in a very neat patty.

Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 0    Positive aspects of the product (pros): Quick & easy Cons: ummm--melts on your fingers? This was the first low-carb chocolate recipe I ever tried, and remains my favorite. Quick, easy, and makes plenty to store for when those gotta-have-it-now cravings hit. To the previous reviewer, I think the "tablespoons" was a typo. Stick with the 2-3 teaspoons of cocoa listed in the ingredients list, and it should turn out.
