Low Carb Death By Chocolate
Serves: 4, 1, 10, 4
Carbs Per Serving: 8
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Effort: Easy
Ingredients:
1 box of sugar free instant chocolate pudding
Cool Whip (as topping, if desired)
2 1/2 pints of heavy whipping cream
How to Prepare:
Blend the pudding mix with the heavy whipping cream until thick. I separate this dessert into 4 containers and enjoy it throughout the week. I like to add a big spoonful of Cool Whip to each container right before eating. This recipe can be made with all sugar free, instant puddings.
Butterscotch is my second favorite!
