Healthy, Orange Cream Klondike Bars!! (Keto, THM, Low-Carb)

Well, super annoyed right now, because I already typed my blog post out, and then somehow I deleted it all when I was trying to type my usual finish. AnYwAyS…my dad really likes orange, and orange cream flavored stuff. So, I decided to try orange cream klondike bars!

Always be sure you trust the oil company you use 100%, especially if ingesting  the oils. Although you’re ingesting them even if you breathe them in, or apply them topically. I use Young Living, and I trust their company!

This time, I decided to cover half of that bars with white chocolate, to see if that went with the orange cream flavor better than regular chocolate. Personally, you will never top dark chocolate for me, and I’m not personally a fan of white chocolate. Hey, to each their own aye??

Ingredients

Mint Ice Cream Filling

  • 1 Pint Heavy Whipping Cream
  • 3 Egg Yolks
  • 1 Tsp Pyure (or Preferred Sweetener)
  • 1 Tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 2 Scoops Mint Chocolate Chip Protein Powder (Phormula-1)
  • 2 Moser Roth 85% Chocolate Bars (Chopped) (For topping, set aside for later)

Chocolate Shell

  • 3-4 Moser Roth 85% Chocolate Bars
  • 1/4 Cup Coconut oil

Instructions

  • In a medium saucepan, pour in the heavy whipping cream, pyure, egg yolks, and vanilla extract.
  • Turn onto medium heat, and whisk frequently, until it begins to simmer.
  • Remove from the heat, and cool for a few minutes. Then whisk in the protein powder.
  • Pour into an 8x8 pyrex dish, with parchment paper in it, and place in the freezer for 30 minutes to an hour. Enough time for it to cool off. Then you can add the chopped chocolate bars, for your chocolate chips, and place it back in the freezer for the remainder of the 4 hours.
  • After the 4 hours is up, take them out of the freezer and allow to soften slightly. Just enough for you to cut them into 9 squares, then place them back in the freezer. (They melt pretty quickly)
  • Put the 3 or 4 Moser Roth bars into a medium sized microwavable bowl with the coconut oil. Microwave in 30 second increments until it's completely melted.
  • Take the bars out of the freezer, and dip them in the chocolate until they're completely covered. Unless of course you don't want that, but who in the world wouldn't want that??
  • Place them back in the freezer until they set, maybe 5 minutes.
  • Eat and Enjoy!! Keep in an airtight container in the freezer for up to a month!!

Orange, Cranberry Biscotti (Healthy)

If you’ve seen my recent recipe for Chocolate Biscotti, then you know it’s one of my favorite holiday desserts. After I made that, my mom wanted me to try a Orange, Cranberry version. It turned out AWESOME!!

As you may be able to tell, I forgot to add the craisins till after I had everything mixed up. So, I just pressed them into the dough after I rolled it out. I don’t really recommend it because they don’t stick as well.

As you can see, a lot of them already fell off. It’s all good tho. You can just shove a handful of craisins in your mouth, then take a bite of biscotti haha!! Only problem with that, is that the craisins wouldn’t have that baked flavor ya know??

This would make the perfect healthy dessert or snack for your next holiday party!! New Year is coming up!! It’s not super low carb, but it’s not super high carb either. You could even make it vegan for yourself, or any friends that may be vegan. Just add flax eggs instead of regular eggs and viola!
