Gina...

Wanna feel like you're cheating, but not, try this....

1/2 cup butter softened (not melted)
18 packets of Splenda
2 squares unsweetened baking chocolate
1 tsp vanilla
2 eggs
Cool Whip

Cream butter and sweetner. Melt chocolate and blend into butter/sweetner mixture when cooled. Stir in vanilla. Add eggs one at a time. With an electric mixer, beat 5 minutes after adding each egg (total 10 minutes), this is important, so set your timer.

Place mixture in 4 custard (or similar) bowls, top with 1-2 tablespoons cool whip.

This treat is about 6g carbs per bowl (less if you don't use a lot of cool whip)

It's a great treat and it really feels like cheating. Just watch your carb count for the day to stay under 20.

The web sites I listed above are great. There are several low carb, great tasting recipes that help you to feel like you're eating normal.

Good luck to all!!!

...and Until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of His hand.
