A "Sludgey" Thursday

The other day, I was catching up on some of my favorite blogs, when I saw an interesting recipe I just had to try. I bookmarked the page, and today I finally got to make it!

Savannah from Muffin Topless creates some awesome healthy recipes that look so tempting! One of her more, shall I say, quirky recipes is called Sludge. Sounds appetizing huh? This is a fantastic low calorie/ low sugar option for dieters or if you are just in the mood for something light and chocolatey after dinner! I tallied up the recipe, and all together  the bowl was only 160 calories! Enjoy the Sludgey goodness!


My Peanut Butter Cup SLUDGE
Ingredients:
  • 1 Scoop chocolate casein (I used MOM's "Show Me The Whey" Protein Powder)
  • 2 TB PB2 (powdered peanut butter) or you can swap this out for 1 TB natural peanut butter
  • 2 TB unsweetened baking cocoa
  • Stevia to taste (I used a packet of Pure Via)
  • 1 TB Nevada Manna sugar-free chocolate chips (I omitted these)

Before the freezer...

Mix all of the ingredients in a bowl and mix together. Then, add water BY THE TABLESPOON. This is very important, as you will soon encounter a watery mess. I stirred in one tablespoon, then mixed, then another, mixed, and one more until it reached the perfect texture- similar to icing. Then, just pop it in the freezer for a half an hour before you gobble it up!
After!! Yum!






This stuff was soo good! I smell a new go-to dessert!! It tasted like dark chocolate pudding and I loved the texture. Next time, I will be sure to add more sugar, as it was just a touch under-sweetened. Live and learn...

What's your favorite easy recipe?
