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 13×9-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.

When making chocolate chip cookies, how do you adjust the recipe if you have extra large eggs?

I’m going to make Toll House Chocolate Chip cookies but I have 2 extra large eggs instead of just large eggs. Normally if I make it like that, the cookies turn out kinda flat and they don’t look right. How much should I increase the dry ingredients to make up for the larger-sized eggs?

Rich, Moist Chocolate Cake Recipe

For this wonderful recipe, I recommend a good dark chocolate with at least 70% cocoa solids because it gives a more chocolatey, fuller flavour to the chocolate cake. Green & Blacks chocolate is my favourite for this chocolate cake recipe.

Ingredients:

For the chocolate cake:
200g Green & Blacks dark chocolate, broken into small pieces
200g light muscovado sugar
140g butter, softened
5 eggs, separated
100g plain flour
1tsp baking powder

For the chocolate cake icing:
250ml double cream
55g marshmallows
250g Green & Blacks dark chocolate, chopped

Directions:

Heat the oven to 180°C/350°F/Gas Mark 4. Line a 20cm loose based cake tin with greaseproof paper. Boil a pan of water and turn the heat down to a simmer. Put the chocolate pieces into a bowl and melt it over the pan of simmering water. When all the chocolate has melted, put it to one side to cool a little. In a large bowl beat sugar and butter together until light and fluffy. Add the egg yolks one at a time and beat them well as you add them. Gently fold in the flour and baking powder, then stir in the melted chocolate. In a separate bowl whisk together the egg whites until they form peaks. Fold the egg whites gently into the chocolate cake mixture. Tip the finished cake mixture into your ready prepared cake tin. Bake in the oven for about 35 minutes. Check it’s ready with a skewer, if it comes out of the cake clean then it’s ready, if not then bake for a little longer. Cool on a wire rack.

For the icing, heat together the cream and marshmallows until the cream is just boiling and all the marshmallows have melted into the cream, you must stir the icing all the time.
Add the chopped chocolate to the mixture and stir until it’s smooth and creamy.
Chop your cooled chocolate cake in half horizontally and spread over a little of the icing. Sandwich together and then spread the rest of the icing over the top of your cake.
Now enjoy!
