In reply to xealia. You can really use whatever sweetener you like since you can just add and taste and adjust the chocolate syrup before adding it into the cereal.

Need a “like” button! For this comment. Many people think coconut is a tree NUT! Its not! My oldest has tree nut and dairy allergies! Pretty hard to make things here too! What can I sub for liquid Stevia and how much? Can’t find that stuff here in hick town nor in the bigger cities. Plus I’m not so sold on the health benefits of stevia vs agave
or honey!

In reply to Jo. Of course, just use sweetener of choice, taste and adjust before mixing with the cereal and hardening.

In reply to Robert Encarnacao. Macadamia's are tree nuts. Coconuts are not tree nuts unless they have a separate allergy Can't wait to try these!!

In reply to Kaitlin. You could use packets. I would say 3-5 but you must determine that by tasting it once added. Mix two in and taste it and adjust. I also have a homemade sugar free magic shell recipe :)

Hi! Thanks for the great recipe. I used to be in love with the magic shell and now I’m eating clean soI’m extremely excited to try this. Is it necessary to use liquid chocolate stevia or is it possible to use the stevia packets plus a little extra chocolate?!! Thank you!!

You should be able to achieve the same effect with vegetable shortening (although not as healthy it will do the trick!)

In reply to Shannon. I bought them both at Whole Foods, but I don't have any of the cherries left but they were their brand. The chocolate chips were made by Sunspire.
