1/4 c Unsalted Butter; 1/4 c Lowfat cream cheese;
3 tb Cocoa powder; 4 tb 6 tb artificial sweetener;*
Melt the butter in a small saucepan. Add the cocoa and cook,
stirring, for 3 minutes over low heat. Remove from the heat and
leave to cool for 5 minutes.
Stir cheese into the cocoa, then mix in the artificial sweetener to
taste. Chill the chocolate spread in a covered container and it will
keep for about 3-5 days in the refrigerator, depending on the shelf
life of the cheese.
*This works very well but it important to avoid sweeteners containing
saccharine as they make the spread very bitter.
