If you want to change the flavor up a bit, add a teaspoon of Amaretto extract/flavoring to the heavy cream before combining the other ingredients. They’re delicious!
Thank you, I tried these using Equal sweetener, and they were good, but after seeing all of the Keto recipes on the site using Bochasweet, I opted to give that a try on the second batch. It literally tastes like regular chocolate covered pecans, no strange aftertaste. It’s nice to be able to have decent quality chocolate again.
