Peanut Butter Protein Bars

Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons no-sugar peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1/2 teaspoon liquid artificial sweetener
- 1/4 cup Splenda
- 1 scoop Vanilla Praline Designer Whey protein powder*

Melt peanut butter and butter in microwave or double boiler. Mix in the sweeteners thoroughly. Add protein powder and stir until it forms a ball. (You may need to use clean hands to aid in the thorough mixing.) Roll up in ball and knead a bit; then separate into even portions, shaping as desired. Refrigerate until firm.

Makes 4 bars. Approx 2 carbs per bar.

Note: It's best to use the "scoop" that comes with the package, but in case it's lost (or you use another brand), this is approx. 1/3 of a cup.
