6 oz sugar-free chocolate pieces, melted
3/4 cup sugar-free cookies ie vanilla wafers or shortbread, crushed into crumbs
1/4 cup sugar-free strawberry preserves, seedless or strained
chopped plain almonds or pecans for rolling
Combine the melted chocolate with the softened cream cheese and mix until blended. Stir in cookie crumbs and preserves. Chill overnight.

Remove from refrigerator and shape into 1-inch sized balls. Roll balls in the crushed nuts.
Note: May substitute cocoa powder for the nuts, if desired. Remember, however, that nuts are very healthy for diabetics.
