Default Peanut Butter Protein Bars

So youngest DS is into High protein and body building. I found this in Dana Carpenders "500 Low Carb Recipes" He LOVES them. ME, I am not a peanut butter/or nut person. But I thought I would share this with you guys. He is making them himself tonight! LOL. (preparing for when he is off to college, he is afraid he is going to starve if I don't teach him!Woo hoooo! )

1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup natural peanut butter ( perferabley chunky) at room temperature (I use whatever I happen to have on hand)
4 oz cream cheese softened
1 3/4 cup vanilla flavored whey protein powder
1 T vanilla
2T Splenda
1/2 cup chopped peanuts

1. Melt the butter and add the peanut butter and softened cream cheese to it. Mix together with a spoon (no need to drag out a blender or mixer) and then add the protein powder, vanilla, Splenda, and peanuts; stir well. (it will be very crumbly)

2. Taste and see if it is sweet enough. If not, add a litte more Splenda (I never do this)

3. Press the mixture firmly into an 8x8 pan. Slice into 12 pieces and put the whole pan in the freezer. Remove when bars are firm.

Yield: 12 bars, each with 9 grams of carbs, 1 gram of fiber, for a total of 8 grams of usable carbs and 31 grams of protein.

*for storage, it's a good idea to package these in individual zipper-lock bags in the freezer

I normally don't like peanut butter candies...pbutter with jelly or reeses cups are okay, but not anything else.

HOWEVER, for some reason, these sound really appealing! What's the fat content??
