  1. AWEsome recipe!!!!I was skeptical but WOW this tastes just like chocolate pudding I added the sugar before cooking and I chilled it in the fridge. You need to stir every minute or it will overflow ( found out the hard way). I LOVE this recipe it is most definitely a keeper
     
  2. Good recipe girl! I sprinkle my splenda on in the last minute of cooking to kind of give it a 'crust' & I cook it in a wide, flattish bowl.<br/>There's a new polenta & cucina restaurant opened up in town & for someone who is usually timid about eating out, I LOVE the polenta desserts!
     
  3. I love polenta and I love chocolate, but the two just don't go together real well. I tried this as a morning snack,using water because the calorie count was so low, but by the time i had added enought sugar to make it edible (4 T.) it was no longer low calorie.
     
  4. I just couldn't get over the texture of this and I don't think the polenta went at all well with the chocolate. If you add a good deal of sugar and eat it quickly you can almost fool yourself into thinking you're eating something like cream of wheat with brown sugar, but in the end, I had to dump most of it.
     
  5. I didn't have any exploding issues, but I do have to tell you to definitely follow the directions and stir this every minute. (I tried it once without stirring and it was a mess!) I used low fat skim milk as my liquid and sprinkled some splenda over the top. This made it a 2 point chocolate breakfast (on WW) which I enjoyed. This will come out of the microwave liquidy, but gets firmer as it sits. Thanks for a great one to try!

<p>Hi there! My name is Ashley and sad to say I am suffering from an eating disorder aka Anorexia. So you will find that most of my recipes aren't very fattening but I try to make the as tasty as possible. I am trying to get better and I find that my faith in Jesus Christ helps me in all situations. <br /><br />An update 8 years later.&nbsp; I have completely overcome my eating disorder.&nbsp; I am now a mother of two little girls and love them to death!&nbsp; It is almost embarassing to look back at the recipes because I no longer worry about eating low-calorie and these recipes just look gross, lol.<br /> <br />Update: I am happily married now and I am doing much better with my eating disorder now thanks to him!</p>
