Thanks for the recipe! That looks like what I wanted. I have made the Buckeyes (peanut butter balls) for years, but this is the first time I have tried to go sugar free. I will keep this recipe for next time. I am going to make another batch using sugar for all the others that have no problems with it. I just ordered more of the Maltitol powdered sugar. It is really nice to work with, but very expensive.
