Can Diabetics Enjoy Chocolate? Sure! Try These Chocolate Recipes

Being diabetic does not mean we can't enjoy chocolate. We chocoholics
have a collection of chocolate "sweets" to enjoy. Here I share a few of
them. So diabetic chocoholics, relax and enjoy! (As with all foods
though, we must enjoy our chocolate in moderation. Don't pig out and eat
everything in one setting!!) Do you like cold, frozen desserts? Then try
the Frozen Cocoa Dessert below. Another option is a Chocolate Eclair
Dessert.


FROZEN COCOA DESSERT

1 medium ripe banana

1 cup orange juice

1/2 cup cold water

1 cup cream

1/2 cup Splenda

1/4 cup baking cocoa powder

Slice banana into the container of a blender. Add orange juice and cold
water. Cover and blend until smooth. Add remaining ingredients, cover
again and blend well. Pour into a freezer-proof square pan. Cover and
freeze until hard around the edges.

Spoon the partially frozen mixture into blender container. Cover and
blend until smooth but not melted. Pour into a 1-quart mold. Cover and
freeze until firm. Unmold onto a plate that has been chilled. Slice and
serve.

Garnish with some Sugar-Free Frozen Whipped Topping, thawed, if desired.


CHOCOLATE ECLAIR DESSERT

1 cup water

1/2 cup butter

1 cup all-purpose flour

4 eggs or 1 cup egg substitute

1 small pkg instant sugar-free vanilla pudding mix

2 3/4 cups low-fat milk

1 pkg (8 oz) light cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup sugar-free chocolate syrup

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a saucepan, bring water and butter to a
boil, stirring constantly until butter is melted. Reduce heat to low and
add the flour. Stir vigorously with a wooden spoon until mixture leaves
sides of pan and forms a smooth ball. Remove from the heat. Add eggs,
one at a time or 1/4 cup at a time, beating well after each addition.
Beat until the batter becomes smooth. Spread into a greased and floured
13x9-inch baking pan. Bake for 30 minutes or until puffed and golden.
Immediately remove from pan and cut in half horizontally. Cool
completely. For filling, beat the pudding mix, milk and cream cheese in a
mixing bowl until smooth. Just before serving, place the bottom eclair
layer on a serving platter and cover with filling. Add the other eclair
layer to the top of filling mixture and drizzle with chocolate syrup.

NOTE: This is a good diabetic recipe because it has a good carb to protein
ratio of 15 g carbs to 6 g protein.

Enjoy!
