I made these when I was soooo hungry for chocolate nuts but didn't want to buy a bag of milk chocolate ones that would be far worse in carbs and glycemic load.
These have protein, and while they aren't 'low carb' they are lower than a number of the candy bars out there, and more of their calories come from the nuts and nut butter than from sugar. They're also terribly easy to make.
1 oz dairy free rich dark chocolate
1 tbsp peanut butter or other nut butter
1/2 cup pecan halves or your favorite nuts
Melt chocolate in small bowl in microwave till just soft enough to stir. Stir in nut butter and then pecan halves. Drop by spoonfuls onto lightly greased waxed paper. Chill until hard.
Serves 1-2
Carbs between 15-25 depending on chocolate and nut butter
Protein around 10 grams
