2 square unsweetened bakers chocolate, melted
3/4 cup granular splenda
2 eggs
1/2 cup natural unsweetened peanut butter
1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
1/3 cup butter
Icing:
1/2 cup cream cheese
1/2 tsp vanilla
1/4 cup granular splenda
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix all of the first ingredients together and spoon into greased mini muffin pan. Bake for 5-7 minutes. (I baked for 10 and they were really dry). Mix cream cheese, vanilla, and splenda. Spoon into a sandwich bag, and snip off a tiny piece of the corner to squeeze out the icing. Decorate the brownies.
If there is any way of making these more moist. Let me know!

Chicken Bacon Roulades (low carb)
My even lower carb variation of this recipe found on Pinterest
1 shallot, chopped
4 thinly sliced chicken breast halves (comes in 1 pkg)
7 pieces of bacon
Lemon pepper seasoning to taste
Parmesan cheese, aka "sprinkle cheese"
Sauce
1 tbs minced garlic
1/3 cup dry white wine
2 tbs soy flour
1/4 cup chicken broth
1/4 cup heavy cream
Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
Cook the bacon in a large skillet until brown and flexible, not crispy, on medium high heat. Remove bacon from pan and set on paper towels. Mince shallot. Reduce heat to medium low and cook shallots in bacon grease until tender. Remove with a slotted spoon to a small bowl. Reduce heat to low.
Take one thinly sliced chicken breast and place on plastic wrap. Season top of breast with lemon pepper seasoning. Add two strips of bacon and spoonful of shallots. Generously coat in parmesan cheese.
Using the edge of the plastic wrap, tightly roll the chicken and filling. Secure with toothpicks (or in my case, a broken kabob skewer). Repeat for all chicken. Place roulades on a cookie sheet.
Bake for 30 minutes in the oven.
While the chicken is baking, add garlic, wine, soy flour, chicken broth, and heavy cream to the skillet. Heat to medium and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Reduce to low and let the sauce sit on the stove top until chicken is done. Serve roulades with white wine sauce on top.

Feta, Olive, and Lamb Meatballs (low carb)
1 lb ground lamb
1/2 cup chopped parsley
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tbs chopped onion
1/2 cup feta cheese
1/2 cup pitted Kalimata olives, chopped
2 small eggs
Mix all ingredients together and mix well. Form into 1 inch balls and broil 4 minutes on one side. Then, turn the meatballs, and broil another 4 minutes.
These taste great wrapped in a low carb tortilla with sour cream or taziki sauce.
