I wanted to do a new low carb video to welcome in the new year. These were a big hit at all my holiday family functions even with my non-low carbing family members. Most never new they were eating low carb fudge.
The original recipe can be found here: http://www.genaw.com/lowcarb/peanut_butter_fudge.html
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1/2 cup Natural Peanut Butter
2 ounces softened cream cheese
1 cup Splenda
2/3 cup Vanilla Whey protein powder
* Microwave the butter and peanut butter on HIGH for 1 minutes; mix thoroughly.
* Mix in the cream chees
* Add the Splenda and the whey protein powder until well combined.
* Line a 8 x 8″ baking pan with nonstick foil. Spread the fudge and press out with another nonstick piece of foil or plastic wrap.
* Chill for one hour.
Makes around 20 pieces.

I have actually …
I have actually made a video on just this topic… Do a Youtube search on “Atkins Diet I’ve cheated what now?” The short answer is why did you cheat, and that’ll help you determine what you should do going forward. Basically if you cheated because you wanted to for a single meal, made a conscious decision to and stopped when done, then you can probably pick up where you left off. If it became a carb graze with out of control eating, then Induction. Watch the video, it explains more clearly.

Urgh. Sorry, don’t …
Urgh. Sorry, don’t like sweet things. I’d prefer to just eat peanut butter and cream neat! That’s why I chose Atkins in the first place. No sweet tooth, find potatoes pointless (okay, red hot curry without rice or naan is upsetting), but best of all no carbs in gin ; )

I think anything …
I think anything has the possibility of being bad for you. It is the amount that is in question for safety purposes. If in your opinion, zero is correct amount for you then this recipe is obviously not for you.

I know that is why I will only use stevia.

Sorry, I have had no negative reaction to it and don’t believe the negative effects especially if you use it as much (or little as I do).
