Ingredients

  • 8 ounces cream cheese (package, the brick kind like thisKraft Philadelphia Cream Cheese)
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • stevia (to taste
  • 2 tablespoons sugar free hazelnut syrup
  • 1/4 cup ground hazelnuts (package, the brick kind like thisKraft Philadelphia Cream Cheese)

Instructions

  • Put out the cream cheese to soften on the counter at room temperature.
  • Once softened, place in a large bowl and add all other ingredients except for the ground hazelnuts.
  • Use a wooden spoon to blend the cream cheese, cocoa powder and sweetener and syrup.
  • (NOTE) I find the syrup to be sweet enough so I don’t add stevia, but you can after you taste it.
  • Roll the mixture into 16 balls.
  • Dip each ball into the ground hazelnuts.
  • Chill to harden.
  • I keep mine buried in the back of the fridge (so my kids don’t eat them all at once!).
  • Then they are there for me when that emergency craving hits! UPDATE: It’s July 2015 and we are in a heat wave.
  • I tried making these tonight and the mixture was too soft to roll into balls! To make them less soft use less syrup (only 1 tbsp) and maybe add some stevia.
  • What I ended up doing (because I had already added too much syrup!) is spreading the cream mixture in a silicone pan and sprinkling the ground hazelnuts on top.
  • Then I placed in the freezer for an hour.
  • Cut into squares.
  • This was quite heavenly actually!
