• Note: If you aren't used to sugar substitutes, you might hate the end result! You can try this recipe with 1/3 cup sugar or 1/4 cup Agave sweetener for a tasty treat. I am using Truvia (like Stevia but a more specific part of the plant?) because it is supposed to be "safe" and is plant-derived. It has a slight, licorice-like aftertaste (not as strong as that of Stevia, thankfully) but the nutmeg helps to balance that. *If you are on a anti-Candida diet, this dessert is particularly good because coconut milk is a natural source of caprylic acid, which helps to kill the little guys off.
