Trying to find a chocolate dessert type recipe that's sugar free but still tastes good is so hard. Although the Trader Joe's No Carb Dark Chocolate fits the bill most of the time, I wanted to find an alternative. I first googled apple, pb, no sugar, oat balls and somehow found this recipe. It called for 1.5 cups of fructose so I used the Trader Joes Blue Agave instead.
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1 cup Agave
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup milk
~*~
1/2 cup peanut butter
tsp vanilla
3 cups oats - not instant
Stir first 4 ingredients into a saucepan and bring to a boil for a minute. Add PB and vanilla, mix well. Stir in oatmeal. Take off the heat and when cool enough to handle (but still warm) shape into small balls, place on waxed-paper lined cookie sheet, and chill in refrigerator. Makes a couple dozen. Throw in the freezer for a "cooler" dessert. Chris liked these a lot so it's not just for those who are looking to lower their blood sugar.
