This particular recipe is definitely NOT a health food. But if you are plagued with a snack attack with chocolate, this might fit the bill. At least, you will know how the calories will stack up if you indulge.

Chocolate and Nutter Butter Bites


Makes 4 servings (1 sandwich=1 serving)
5 minutes easy to prepare

8 1/4 oz. squares of bittersweet chocolate
4 tsp almond, cashew or pistachio butter

Top each cholate square with 1/2 tsp. a nut butter of your choice.

Nutrition Information:
1 serving is 79 calories; 6 g fat (2 g sat, 1 g mono); 0 mg cholesterol; 9 g carbohydrate; 1 g protein; 1 g fiber; 12 mg sodium; 20 mg potassium.

Magnesium, copper, chromium
1/2 Carbohydrate Serving
Exchanges: 1/2 other carbohydrate, 1 fat

 

For a healthier option, 1 8oz. glass of plain apple juice is about 100 calories.

Ingenious! I love those Nutter Butter cookies and this would be even healthier -- no reason why you couldn't use the really good dark chocolate, for sure. The good stuff is wonderfully healthy, great for your heart. Thanks for sharing this!

Of Course the Word Chocolate Drew My Attention, I have made some similar to that but modified using the Dove Chocolate Discoveries premium white Chocolate. Have Not Tried It Yet with Our Sugar Free Chocolate.
