- If you are a chocolate fan, include sugar-free chocolate chips or cacao nibs.
- Use natural peanut butter or organic almond butter to avoid added sugars and artificial preservatives.
- Including a little coconut oil in the peanut butter mixture can increase the fat content and help soften the mixture’s consistency.
- Use full-fat cream cheese instead of reduced-fat options, as they often contain added sugars.
