In reply to Valarie. What brand of chocolate did you use?

I’m really not sure what happened because I followed the recipe but they were horrible unfortunately. They literally tasted like medicine. I’m not sure how else to describe it. The peanut butter part was good but the chocolate was horrible. It could have been the brand of chocolate chips maybe? I just don’t know. Hopefully everyone else’s turns out better. My son was just recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and always got reese’s for Valentine’s day so I was really excited to try this so he could still have reeses. But needless to say they are in the trash now 🤣 Maybe I’ll try again another time with a different chocolate.

I just happened across your site a few weeks ago and started following your WIAW blog and reading up on all of your wonderful recipes. I made these for a family gathering that my husband and I hosted the weekend before Valentine’s Day, and they were a big hit. Amazing! Thank you so much! I can’t wait to make them again.

My family just started a healthier living plan similar to yours. It’s only been 3 weeks, but we are getting used to it. Some days are harder than others. I was thrilled when I found your website. Peanut butter cups are, by far, my favorite chocolate candy. I will be trying these next week. Thanks so much for all your time and info!

I just made these and they tasted great. I could only find a 6 heart silicon piece, so I doubted the amount of chocolate/peanut butter in each heart. I may try it with PB2 next time to cut the calories down even more. Thanks for the recipe.

In reply to YariZ. I've never sued Ideal so I can't say for sure.

In reply to Michelle Bruno. Hi Michelle, I too found out a couple years ago that I was prediabetic due to a condition I have called pcos (polycycstic ovarian syndrome) that among other things causes insulin resistance. I found out about a natural supplement called pgx daily. It is blended fiber and has coconut oil in it to help control blood sugar levels. I lost 80 lbs with it. I buy it on Amazon but lots of health stores are starting to carry it. Anyways jusy thought I would pass along the info.

In reply to Trae. I do love them unsweetened but my family doesn't.

In reply to Brenda. I eat unsweetened carob chips all the time. They have a natural sweetness to them that I prefer to even grain sweetened carob chips. They come in packets in many natural foods stores. I buy them in bulk!

In reply to Christy Williamson. about 1/2 a teaspoon but you can then taste that and if the PB isn't sweet enough add more.

Hi! Can’t wait to try these! How much Stevia is in one packet? I just have it in a big container. Thanks!

In reply to Maria. I haven't used Kal stevia so I can't say how much, sorry.
