Low Carb Peanut Butter Squares

This is for all the Peanut Butter Lovers out there. I haven’t made any sweets as of late so I thought it was time to share one of my favorites. The carb count ends up being 4.3 net carbs per square but you must consider the calories are quite high also (102 calories). If you are trying to lose weight I would recommend waiting until you are in maintenance. So please, you must be very careful, they are so delish that you will want more. Keep control on these ones.

Tip: I find I make these squares in the cooler season. They are a soft bar and if making them in the hotter weather you will find they soften up quite a bit.
