Description
A light, fluffy, and chocolatey low-carb treat inspired by the classic 3 Musketeers candy bar.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- ⅓ cup powdered keto sweetener
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup sugar-free chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil or butter
Instructions
- Prepare the Chocolate Base: Place the softened cream cheese into a large mixing bowl. Beat until completely smooth and creamy. Add cocoa powder, powdered keto sweetener, and vanilla extract. Continue mixing until fully incorporated and no lumps remain.
- Whip the Heavy Cream: Pour the heavy whipping cream into a chilled mixing bowl. Using an electric mixer, whip on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form. Avoid over-whipping.
- Fold Everything Together: Using a rubber spatula, gently fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture until no white streaks remain.
- Freeze the Filling: Line a small square dish or loaf pan with parchment paper. Spread the chocolate mixture evenly to approximately 1 inch thick. Freeze for 30–45 minutes until firm enough to slice.
- Cut into Candy Bars: Remove the frozen filling. Lift it from the pan using the parchment paper. Slice into 8 equal rectangles. Place back into the freezer for another 15 minutes.
- Melt the Chocolate: Combine sugar-free chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth and glossy.
- Coat the Bars: Working one bar at a time, dip each frozen rectangle into the melted chocolate. Allow excess chocolate to drip off and transfer onto parchment paper.
- Let Them Set: Refrigerate the coated bars for about 15 minutes until the chocolate hardens completely.
Notes
Keep everything cold for easier dipping and a better texture. Use powdered sweetener for a smooth filling.
