Atkins Diet Recipes: Low Carb Peanut Butter Fudge

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.

@Stacey353 I am glad you liked it. If you liked this one though, stay tuned for the video I am uploading tonight. It is even better. :-D

[Stacey353]

Do you have to use the protein powder?

[bowulf]

@Stacey353 Yes, it is what gives the fudge it's flavor. Otherwise it would be just peanut butter bricks, which might be nice but is not fudge.
