In reply to Lisa MarcAurele. Can you use coconut cream? I'm dairy free.

In reply to Shelly L Gartzke. Use the sweetener conversion calculator to use another sweetener instead.

In reply to Steve. If using heavy cream vs the canned cream, it should be whipped first and it does help to add in a little gelatin to stabilize. Xanthan gum may work too.

In reply to Rola. It's 3 tablespoons cocoa powder plus 1 tablespoon butter, shortening or oil for every ounce of unsweetened chocolate.

I don't understand why, for the choc coating, the recipe says. "6 Tablespoons low carb sweetener or other sugar substitute" and, "1/4 teaspoon stevia concentrated powder". I use a low carb sweetener that measures like sugar. Why do I need both of these sweeteners in one recipe?

In reply to Valerie Cooper. You can use the liquid drops (you'll need twice as much) or try using 3-4 tablespoons of a powdered sweetener. If you use the powdered sweetener, it's best if it's one that's fine like a confectioner sugar.
