LOW CARB PEANUT BUTTER CUP SQUARES



Low Carb Peanut Butter Cup Squares image

These taste similar to a reeses peanut butter cup, but not quite the same. I wouldn't reccomend using "natural" peanut butter because it changes the taste. I use creamy peanut butter such as jif or peter pan, which has some sugar in it, but not much. The almond meal/flour is just ground up almonds, i make it myself and keep it in the freezer, it can go rancid if not refrigerated.

Time 25m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 ounces baker unsweetened chocolate, melted
3/4-1 cup Splenda sugar substitute, depending on desired sweetness
2 teaspoons peanut butter
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
2 tablespoons almond meal or 2 tablespoons almond flour
2 tablespoons Splenda sugar substitute
1 dash salt

Steps:

  • Butter a small square pan, the pan size depends on how thick you want them to be but it needs to be pretty small.
  • Even in a very small pan, these still come out quite thin, if you prefer them thicker, just double all the ingredients.
  • Mix the melted chocolate, splenda, butter, and 2 teaspoons peanut butter until smooth.
  • Spread half of the mixture into the bottom of buttered pan.
  • Put the pan into the freezer.
  • While it's freezing, mix together the peanut butter, almond meal/flour, salt, and the 2 tablespoons splenda.
  • After the chocolate hardens in the freezer, take it out and spread the peanut butter on top.
  • Put the pan back into the freezer for about 3-4 minutes, until the peanut butter layer is semi-firm.
  • Spread the remaining chocolate on top and put in the freezer until set.
  • Cut into small squares and store in the refrigerator.

Tips:

  • Choose the right peanut butter. For a healthier option, use unsweetened, natural peanut butter. It contains fewer carbs and added sugars than regular peanut butter.
  • Use a sugar substitute. If you're watching your sugar intake, you can use a sugar substitute like stevia or erythritol in place of granulated sugar.
  • Add some extra protein. If you want to make these squares even more filling, you can add a scoop of protein powder to the batter.
  • Don't overcook the squares. The squares should be set in the center but still have a slightly gooey texture. If you overcook them, they'll be dry and crumbly.
  • Chill the squares before cutting them. This will help them hold their shape better.

Conclusion:

These diabetic peanut butter squares are a delicious and satisfying treat that you can enjoy without guilt. They're made with wholesome ingredients like peanut butter, almond flour, and coconut oil, and they're sweetened with a sugar substitute. Plus, they're packed with protein and fiber, so they'll help you stay full and satisfied. Whether you're looking for a healthy dessert or a quick and easy snack, these peanut butter squares are a great option.
