I love chocolate, and I love being healthy and fit. So i've come up with a compromise- a delicious chocolate puffed wheat square reduced in sugar and fat. I've made this recipe with 2 oz. of 72% cocoa chocolate and 6 squares of Lindt 99% cocoa chocolate... but i'm sure you could play around with different chocolate bars to get a preferred chocolate taste. Ingredients:
5 cups puffed wheat cereal |
3 ounces dark chocolate, 70 |
1/4 cup chocolate protein powder |
1/4 cup honey |
1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
Directions:
1. Grease a 9x9 inch pan.
2. Measure out the puffed wheat into a large bowl.
3. In a medium saucepan on low heat, melt and mix the remaining ingredients.
4. Pour the chocolate mixture into the bowl of puffed wheat and stir.
5. Press the chocolate puffed wheat mixture into the greased pan and refrigerate for a couple hours before cutting into squares.
