1. In a small bowl, combine peanut butter, sugar-free maple syrup and
   sweetener. Stir until combined.
2. Add nonfat dry milk, stirring until thoroughly combined (mixture will be
   very thick).
3. Add textured vegetable protein, and stir until just combined (mixture will be even thicker!) Roll into balls about the size of a walnut (1 tablespoon). Swirl each ball into nonfat dry milk or TVP to coat. Keep in an airtight container or zip-top bag.
