    My favorite treat is one small box of SF jello (usually cherry or raspberry to go with the cocoa powder), 4 ounces cream cheese, 1 tablespoon cocoa powder, and enough boiling water to equal about 3 cups. Wizz it together and divide into 4 ramekins. Refrigerate until set and I top with a tablespoon of whipped cream.

    LOL. Yes. Thank you @eneild. I just made some. 1st time ever. Just a whiff of the cocoa/cherry tells me it is going to be tasty. Makes me think of Christmas and the box of Queen Anne Chocolate Covered Cherries my Grandma always had.

    @TBeverly49, I eat cream cheese by the clump right off the tip of a knife as a private indulgence. I love that stuff and for whatever reason I find it way more satisfying than an equal amount of "regular" cheese. Sometimes I mix in black or green chopped olives.

    Greek yogurt, Sugar Free Polander's Seedless Raspberry Preserves and cocoa (if it fits your carbs). Well, at least I used the powdered cocoa you mentioned. ;)

    Avocado, cocoa powder and sweetener. Masher or blend together. Tastes like chocolate pudding, you will not taste the avocado.

    I do chocolate fat bombs.
    125 g. of coconut oil, melted.
    Add 25 g 100% raw cacao powder
    a sweetener you can tolerate to taste I use drops of chocolate stevia.
    Add vanilla extract and almond extract to your taste.

    Blend all together and place in a chocolates mold or a silicon ice cube tray will work too. I place some slivered almonds in the mold before adding the chocolate mix, as I like it better that way, and who doesn't want more almonds? Freeze.

    You can also use melted Ghirardelli 100% bittersweet chocolate , again 25 grams if you don't have cacao powder available. Both are delicious. The ones made this way are not as easy to melt in your hand, Ghirardelli bars have already been tempered. But they will melt if you take along time eating those. The others, I always wrap in parchment paper or a napkin, as they are not tempered, so they melt down quickly.

    I've just discovered cream cheese pancakes, I added a half teaspoon of golden flax seed flour and some water to bulk them. Wowee they are great

    I have discovered that just googling ingredients I have on hand, plus the word "keto" brings up a lot of good recipes.
