1/3 cup natural peanut butter
2 tbsp butter
1/3 cup whole milk ricotta cheese
1/3 cup granulated splenda
1 tsp vanilla extract
Combine the peanut butter , butter & ricotta in a microwave safe bowl.
Heat for 30 seconds or so , until you can stir it all together nicely ( when butter melts)
Add the splenda & the vanilla.
Stir it up til its all blended nice.
Drop inot 12 lil piles on some waxed paper.
I but mine in the freezer to firm up quicker.
Then I transfered it to the fridge.
****** I bet cream cheese would work equally as well.

I tried these just before I posted it, wow these are pretty good. I had a really bad sweet tooth just a little while ago, and I ate some peanut butter (Skippy Natural creamy) and it calmed it. Soon after I started looking up PB recipes haha, this one was pretty good, so far they're cooling. I didn't make them into balls since I microwaved it pretty good and it was a little liquidy (not good enough to form into balls). So I just brought out a cupcake pan and just put it in there and put it in the freezer. :)
