Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 10    Positive aspects of the product (pros): Delicious - tastes like my mom's fudge Cons: Too hard to stop at one piece This is wonderful -- you'll never know it's low carb. Remember to store it in the fridge -- it softens up quickly in warm weather. I confess that I ate 3 pieces the first time I tasted it!

Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 9    Positive aspects of the product (pros): easy and tasty Cons: kids and dh ate all my fudge I changed the recipe a bit by adding 2 ozs of unsweetened bakers chocolate and a bit more splenda. I also used chucnky peanut butter. So mine was a choclate peanut fudge. Very easy to make and nice taste and stayed fudge like when stored in fridge.

Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 0    Positive aspects of the product (pros): Cons: how does natural peanut butter work with this recipe. I really can't stand the taste of artifical peanut butters like JIF. I really love the taste of Trader Joe's Natural Creamy Salted Peanut butter. I don't want to waste it though, has any one else found success with natural peanut butter?
stratman80 Junior LCF Member Registered: October 2004 Posts: 2	Review Date: Fri October 15, 2004 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 9    Positive aspects of the product (pros): Awesome flavor and texture Cons: Waiting for them to harden! These were great, tasted just like fudge and were easy to make. Hardened in about an hour in the refrigerator. We found greasing the pan is not necessary if you can get the wax paper to line the bottom and sides in one sheet. Be sure to have supplies to make a second batch, the first will be gone quick! We used carb solutions high protien vanilla shake mix for the "whey powder."

Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 10    Positive aspects of the product (pros): Easy to make Cons: Addictive...can't eat just one piece! As far as LC desserts go, this is a 10 (right up there with Beachgirl's cheesecakes)! I think even my low-carb-phobic family might not turn their noses up at this. Next time I make it I might spread a layer of LC chocolate fudge on top, for the perfect flavor blend.

Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 10    Positive aspects of the product (pros): Great taste Cons: very tempting to eat too many! This is really great, but the carb count is high if you don't cut them into small pieces AND limit yourself.

This is such a great recipe - and quick too. It is hot here and such a pleasure to have a treat that doesn't need to be cooked. I added CO and almond flour to the recipe. After refrigerating, I cut in 1/4 inch squares (so I can have 4!) and store in plastic container in the refrigerator. So easy and handy . . . hmmmmmmm. . . maybe tooo easy and handy! These are supurb!

Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 8    Positive aspects of the product (pros): SO easy to make, and quick Cons: a little salty (?) This was kinda salty- must've been either the peanut butter or the butter. Next time I will look for unsalted butter, and maybe reduced sodium peanut butter. Still pretty good, though

I had to tweak the Splenda out of it (replaced by Stevia) and I used regular salted butter and Body Fortress vanilla whey protien powder. THIS.STUFF.ROCKS!

kitchenwitch2 Senior LCF Member Registered: September 2008 Location: California Posts: 62	Review Date: Sun November 30, 2008 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 9    Positive aspects of the product (pros): Cons: I made this fudge yesterday. I don't like Splenda so I used powdered Erythritol and Torani caramel for the sweetener. I obviously need to play with the ratio, as my fudge did not harden-I had to freeze it initially, but now it's fine. My biggest complaint is that I did not listen to the posters who warned about how addicting it is. Now it is the next day, and I have 3 pieces left of the whole pan :-( But I will make some to share at xmas. It's a keeper! If you have restraint!
ShellTay Junior LCF Member Registered: February 2006 Location: Bay Area, Northern California Posts: 21	Review Date: Fri December 5, 2008 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 9    Positive aspects of the product (pros): EASY! Cons: I just made this and it is SO tasty! I used 8 packages of Splenda and 10 drops of Stevia. There is a bit of a "fake sugar" after taste but it's not so bad. Also, I didn't have any whey powder so I used 2 tbs of unsweetened cocoa. AND, I used natural chunky peanut butter. Very good. I want to play with it and see if I can use less sweetener and something to drown out the after taste. They very bad thing about low carb for me is that I can taste parts per billion of any AS. Oh well.....but very good desert.
