Description
If you want just one serving of a delicious chocolate spread that has no added sugar, then look no further. Though you could absolutely scale it up and store a larger batch in the fridge of healthy nutella.
Powdered peanut butter as a base provides peanut flavor and protein for minimal calories, while carob powder gives it that rich and slightly sweet chocolate taste. This easy Nutella substitute is perfect on toast, in crepes, or as a dip for fruit.
