| Ingredients: |
1 cup vanilla sugar free syrup
1 cup water 1/2 cup heavy cream 2 eggs, separated pinch of salt 1 tablespoon dry cocoa 1 tablespoon dry instant coffee 1/4 teaspoon Stevia (optional) 1/2 cup powdered Maltitol or equivalent other sweetener of choice (add in carbs) 1/4 teaspoons cream of tartar 3 tablespoons quick cooking tapioca Chocolate cups: 1 block unsweetened baker's chocolate 1 cup sugar free low carb chocolate pieces (click for buying info) 1 ounce paraffin wax |
| Instructions: |
Blend syrup, water, cream, egg yolks, cocoa, coffee, sweetener and tapioca in a medium sauce pan. Allow to sit for 5 minutes then bring to a full rolling boil. Remove from heat and set aside to cool. Hasten this by putting the pan on ice.
Whip egg whites, salt, cream of tartar and Stevia until stiff peaks form. Slowly add cooled tapioca mixture to egg whites while whipping to blend. Chill. To make the chocolate cups: While this is melting, form six foil cups by molding squares of aluminum foil over an orange. Flatten the bottom so it will sit straight. It helps to set the foil cups in a bowl of ice to chill them and then keep them in the ice while you are setting the chocolate (keep insides of the cups dry though).
When you are ready to serve dessert, carefully peel away the foil and place chocolate bowl in the center of your dish, spoon in the Mocha tapioca and garnish with whipped cream and any bits of chocolate that might have broken as you peeled the foil. Total Effective Carbs per entire recipe: 42 |
