Hi dowensrdu! :)

I mix 1/2 Skippy crunchy peanut butter (5 net grams per ounce) with 1/2 Beanit Butter (0 net grams) to get a peanut butter "blend" that's only 2.5 net grams per ounce.

I've also used Almond Butter (2 net grams per ounce) with Beanit Butter to get a neat change of pace flavor and only 1 net gram per ounce.

The Beanit Butter is available at Dixie Diner's:

I found the almond butter at Costco.

If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to ask! ;)

I'd love to make these again, but am going to wait until I lose more weight. I'm afraid if I have them in the house I'll just want to eat them all.  ::)

I would like to make these for Easter, but I have no clue where to find the unsweetened chocolate.  Does anyone have any suggestions?

Any supermarket should carry it, usually in the baking aisle
