1/2 cup creamy peanut butter (no sugar added)
2 cups pecan pieces
Mix Splenda, cocoa, butter, cream and water in saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Boil for 1 1/2 minutes (do not overcook). Remove from heat and stir in peanut butter and vanilla. When peanut butter is evenly spread throughout mixture, add pecan pieces. Stir to coat evenly.
Drop by spoonfuls onto waxed paper. Chill in refrigerator. (Once chilled and "set", you can lift these from the waxed paper and place the entire batch in Tupperware and keep in fridge.)
