Notes

Original recipe used ¼ cup erythritol plus ⅛ teaspoon stevia extract powder as granular sweetener blends weren't readily available.
Creamy peanut butter is recommended but you can use crunchy peanut butter if you want to add small pieces of peanuts into the topping.
Store peanut butter sauce leftovers in the refrigerator and heat up in the microwave or on the stove. 
Water, almond milk, or cream can be stirred in a little at a time to thin out the sauce.
