How to Make Low Carb Cocoa Nuts
Add the nuts to a small slow cooker (I use a small 3-quart one or an Instant Pot with slow cooker option) - my mixture was walnuts, pecans and slivered almonds. Add melted butter, vanilla extract, cocoa powder and sweetener (I used Swerve), and stir well. 
Cook on high for 1 hour. They will smell absolutely amazing when they are cooking!!! Spread the nuts onto a baking sheet to cool.
Store in an airtight container and enjoy this low carb snack anytime!

Apparently all slow cookers are not created equal. Mine was smoking in less than an hour. Burnt.

Oh no! I'm so sorry! I only have the one I can test in - and the recipe works fine. I feel so bad!

Can these be baked in a regular oven?
Georgina says
Yes I'm sure they could - but you'd probably have to watch them carefully so that they don't burn.
