ICEQUEEN -
I think they are about 2 carbs each.

I'm definitely going to try this recipe! THanks!

FYI - tried the carbolite (net *.1 carb) peanut butter cup frozen and I super liked it although the malitol makes me nervous so I only allow myself 1 legal treat a day on the weekends or TOM.

My sister made these for my nephew (he has problems with sugar intake) and he loved them....Thanks again for sharing the recipe!!!!

Just found this site today. I am sooooo happy!! These sound great.
After two years of lc eating I am thrilled to find so many new and great ideas~ Thanks!

Could you please tell me what type of peanut butter does everyone use? Regular, or sugar free? I purchased some sugar free when I first started LC WOE, but I noticed the carbs where almost the same as the regular brands.
Thank you in advance

Hi Sally~
I haven't used any yet but I bought some today to make these peanut butter cups. I bought Smuckers Natural creamy PB....it has no added sugar.......but you are right just about the same carbs..........7 grams per 2T..........2 grams of fiber which I subtract and still 2 g of sugar..........but at least it isn't processed sugar but what occurs naturally in the nuts........I will use it pretty sparingly I think but spread over the 6 cups it shouldn't be too bad for a treat!!

These are SO good! and they are a life saver for my TOM cravings!!!

I use Simply Jiff, its cheaper than the sugar free brands, and it has the same ingrediants, go figure?

Beware!! These are DEADLY!!!!!!
ymmmmmmm

They oughta make you a saint for posting that peanut butter cup recipe. I thought I died and went to heaven! They were spectacular! What a great treat!

My favorite thing in this entire world is chocolate and peanut butter. I think I like it better than sex. As a matter of fact, I know I do! hehehehe

Thanks again.

Here's a variation I developed for a friend who LOVES Mounds bars. Just substitute 1/2 c. coconut for the peanut butter. It's a little harder to pour; I've thought of adding the coconut separately, but they are delicious.

WOW, that cuts the carbs down too....that makes each cup 1 carb less!!!! I'll DEFINITELY have to try that one.

Thanks.

These really are wonderful....even my kids and hubby love them..Oh well better be the bigger person and share.
By the way I got 12 cups out of the receipe.. made them small so I can watch my intake...because I could eat the whole pan at once.

Thanks for the recipe Fern!

I made the peanut butter chocolate cups in mini muffin pans. I doubled the recipe and ended up with 40 of the delightful little treats. In my figuring I came up with each one being worth 1 carb. It will sure be nice to have something sweet that I can legally eat during the coming holiday season!

I'll have to try a little whip cream on one. I was also thinking they might be good dropped into a cup of coffee and dabbed with whip cream on the top on a cold winter's day!

Thanks again!

I saw Peanut Butter in Adkins magazine. Anyone know where I can get low carb peanut butter at the super market? which one and what is it called? I love peanut butter, but Adkins is way to expensive for me.
