Homemade peanut butter cups.
recipe from one of the lowcarb boards.. I add another 2 tbsp of peanut butter.
Peanut Butter Cups
1 stick unsalted butter
1 oz unsweetened bakers chocolate
1/3 c Splenda
1 Tbsp heavy cream
4 Tbsp peanut butter

Thanks for the recipe.
I have a few questions.

Some of us tend to forget that not everyone uses American measurements :-)

1 how much is "one stick" of butter?

1/4 cup. I don't know what that would be metric.

2 what is splenda?

Splenda is a sugar substitute. See http://www.splenda.com/

3 how many percent fat is "heavy cream"?

I don't know what it would be called in Sweden, but heavy cream in its raw form is
what you get at the top of the milk jug after letting the evening milking stand
over night. It's high in fat, but not as high in fat as butter.I don't know the
figures, but that should be enough to know what is meant.
