VitaminCH Sugar Free style

Bruce posted our sugar free chocolate sauce recipe over on Mindlessfluff just a bit ago. I shared it via Amplify and had my first ever sharing fail. Ironically the chocolate sauce recipe didn’t autopost from amplify to anywhere else. (To make things even better, the report of it not posting did autopost everywhere I sent it…)

This recipe was developed years ago during one of my bouts of severe hypoglycemia. I always have it, but it gets worse when I am stressed, not watching what I am eating, or the phase of the moon is weird. This great version of VitaminCH was developed when I was having an extended bout of very low blood sugar. The doctors put me on a no sugar diet. Bruce immediately went to work to find a sugar free chocolate sauce that actually tasted good. This recipe is the result.

Sugar Free Chocolate Sauce

Note: This recipe must be done in the order shown.   Read it carefully first. If you skip steps you will get yuck results.

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cup Nonfat Dry Milk

5 level tbsp. Cocoa

2/3 cup Water

6 level Tbsp. Nutrasweet

1. Measure Nonfat Dry Milk and Cocoa into a small sauce pan. Mix together dry until blended.
2. Add water.
3. Place over low heat. Stirring constantly, heat to 125 degrees F.
4. Remove from heat. Continue to stir until there is no risk of burnt
   chocolate. At this point, mixture is thin and has a dark brown color
   when stirred. When not mixed, a light brown film will appear.
   Beware: When tasted, the mixture will taste bitter. This is because no
   sweetener can be added while the mixture is warm!
   1. Place mixture in fridge to cool. Mixture should be at least room
      temperature before you continue.
   2. Once cool, add Nutrasweet two tablespoons at a time, stirring in as
      you go. We found 6 tablespoons tasted best, but play around to find
      the sweetness level you like.

Bruce has a non-dairy version of this somewhere that uses non-dairy creamer.  It isn’t quite the same. If he finds it, we will share it as well.

(Now watch… Since I am hand sharing it, we will end up with two copies here on VitaminCH.)
