A Delicious Keto Chocolate Bar DIY!

We are never without chocolate in our house, whether it’s dark chocolate for guests, or a treat for us, or low carb bars we find all over Brooklyn stores. We need to have chocolate on hand- always!

Dark chocolate is worth keeping around- it’s incredibly beneficial and actually full of nutrients. From a previous post of ours: (Chocolate Truffles)

Chocolate gets a bad rep for causing weight gain, acne, and boat load of other ailments. Sure, when you cram a cup of sugar into each bar, that’ll run you into some problems. If you put poison into an apple and ate it, would you blame the apple? Real chocolate is full of fat, fiber, antioxidants, iron, magnesium copper, manganese and other minerals. It also helps reduce blood pressure and improves brain function, among many other benefits.

The low carb chocolate bars on the market are a hit or miss, unfortunately. We’ve tried dozens of low carb alternatives to chocolate bars and most taste great, but leave us with the all too familiar stomach issues. This is mainly caused by maltitol, a sugar alcohol that’s most widely used in sugar-free candies. Eat too much of it and you’ll be running to the bathroom all the day. Not a side effect you want to have just because you wanted to enjoy some chocolate! It’s uplifting to see, however, that some companies are opting to use a more forgiving sugar alcohol, erythritol, in their sugar-free products (see: ChocoRite, Bai5 Flavored Water, Lily’s Chocolate, Breyer’s Carb Smart Ice Cream). Hopefully, more chocolate companies make this switch too and say goodbye to that not so friendly maltitol!

We at Tasteaholics use erythritol almost exclusively as our sugar substitute. It’s affordable, tastes great and measures like sugar in baked goods. Best of all, no bad reactions! There are also various forms of erythritol so it can easily slip right into almost any recipe. There is granular erythritol, powdered versions and also erythritol blends (it is a perfect complimentary sweetener to monk fruit).

So we decided to make some low carb chocolate bars of our own! They’re simple to make any time you have a hankering for something chocolatey. Of course, we used erythritol as our sweetener! Enjoy this recipe crumbled in low carb ice cream, dipped in peanut butter, with some strawberries or just with a nice cup of tea. One bite and your need for dark chocolate will be satisfied!
