The holidays are here!

The holidays are here!

Aka- time to make allllllll the low carb, no sugar, ketogenic friendly, HOLIDAY TREATS!

Last year I had a blast whipping up some delicious low carb snacks, appetizers, and desserts to support my new low carb lifestyle, and I never once felt deprived! 

This year I’ll be bringing you some new recipes that are still in line with this way of eating (since I am never turning back to my old ways!) and I’m so excited to start with THIS concoction! 

This is THE perfect plate to bring to your next holiday party, your Thanksgiving table, or for eating with family and friends in your pajamas watching holiday movies. It’s SO easy to make, and you won’t need to turn on your oven!

If you are a chocolate fan looking to satisfy your low carb, sugar free chocolate craving, I’ve got you covered with this dish! The base is a no-bake chewy, fudgey, and rich chocolate brownie. The middle layer is a rich milk chocolate pudding. And it’s finished with fresh vanilla whipped heavy cream. It is decadent! 

Here is the recipe! Go make this TODAY!
