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 Source: Giddy

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.
