Puddings Miracle 6 calorie chocolate jelly

[fit4hols]

Just made this amazing chocolate dessert that only has 28 calories for 600g of the stuff! It really is chocolatey! 1.5 syns for 600g on all plans.

Ingredients
4g pack agar-agar
7g cocoa powder
1tbsp zero calorie sweetener, to taste

Method

• Boil 400ml water.
• Put cocoa powder in a jug and slowly mix in the boiling water and sweetener. Sprinkle in the agar powder, stirring continuously. If using agar granules/flakes, then boil for a few minutes in a saucepan stirring continuously. Quickly stir in 200ml cold water.
• Immediately pour into 5 moulds or small containers and put on a bench to set. Once cool, chill in the fridge.

I dont think i have ever seen liquid sweetener - where do you get that?

 

[fit4hols]

Ah, oops, just checked some of the UK supermarkets online and see you can't get it there. Thanks. Granulated/powder sweetener will work just as well, I've amended the original recipe. If you like chocolate it is really nice, half mousse half jelly...

Hurrah! A jelly recipe without gelatine. Thank you!

You're welcome! Hope you like it, I've eaten so much of it today. I need to make some more tomorrow

Cocoa powder isn't free. It is 4.5 syns for 28g

Sounds dee-lish.

Cocoa powder syns vary dependant on the make so use the 20cals =1 syn rule.
7g is tiny however - so if it's 28 cals for the lot it's about 1.5 syns I think

I know unsweetened cocoa has syns, but I put all the nutrition data calculated from the packaging into the Slimming World syn calculator and it came out as free.

Remember this makes 600g of dessert, and there are only 28 calories in it... Oh, and 2.5g fibre in the total mix.

Not sure about Sainsburys/Tescos/health food shops etc but certainly Asian supermarkets and EBay. Maybe named as agar agar or kanten.

I'm sure they sell it in Tesco - it's the veggie option to gelatine - so should be with cake making stuff

Yes... Been thinking about this one... Let's go with 1.5 syns per total quantity - this is definitely a snack it's possible to over-indulge on! Have updated the original post. Thanks for the putting the info on about Tesco as well, I wasn't sure.
