This chocolate martini is absolutely decadent. The best part? It won't ruin my diet. If you can believe it, it is only 112 calories per serving! It is cocktails and dessert all in one! I saw this recipe on Hungry Girl and I can't think of a better way to end this busy week than with this treat. Believe me, you will be in heaven with this cocktail. Yum!
Chocolate Martini
1 package diet hot cocoa powder
2 ounces of hot water
2 ounces of cold water
2 ounces sugar free chocolate syrup (or any S.F. syrup you like, coconut, vanilla, caramel, etc.)
3 ounces of vodka
3 Tbs fat free whipped cream
Ice
Directions:
Dissolve hot cocoa powder in the hot water. Add the cold water, syrup and vodka. Stir. Add whipped cream and stir until dissolved (adds creaminess to cocktail.) Pour into cocktail shaker full of ice and shake until chilled. Pour into 2 martini glasses and add chocolate shavings.
Makes 2 servings.
Only 112 Calories per serving.
As you can see I added a little of the fat free whipped cream on top with some cocoa powder. It only added a few more calories, and it is totally worth it for me.

Sounds delish! Can't wait to try it!
Between this and the Red Velvet Trifle I think I can go to Heaven now.
Stopping by from Giveaway Corner. I really love the sound of this. Yum!!
Think I will have to give this a shot!
tglad to see another recipe including VODKA...it is THE best alcoholic beverage out there: 64 calories per ounce (1 shot) & NO carbs!
if you are diabetic or watching your calorie intake, VODKA is your best choice!
Well I love the idea BUT low cal vodka is 42 calories per oz so 3 oz is 126 calories, regular between 60 - 70/oz varies by brand = 3 oz is 180-210, plus 25 for low cal cocoa, then add
whatever calories there are in SF syrup and fat free cool whip . . . so 112 calories not so much
Hi Bluesbaby,
Thanks for commenting. I appreciate your numbers, but I think you are a little confused. This recipe says that the ingredients above are for two serving. On average, 70 proof vodka (35% alcohol) has 85 calories per shot (1.5 ounces). This is approximately 55 calories per ounce.
There are also 15 calories per ounce of sugar free chocolate syrup. 2 ounces = 30 calories. The total for everything is 112 calories. I also stated above that I decided to add some cool whip to mine and that it would add extra calories over the 112 but I was okay with that.
Sorry you are confused.
xoxo
