Natural peanut butter instead of Jif?

Will it make a huge difference if I use a natural peanut butter with no added ingredients (santa cruz organic is soooo good) instead of a Jif type?

Once I buy it I know I will be finishing off the jar by the spoonful so the natural pb is slightly less indulgent.

Hi! I wouldn't recommend that swap here for a couple reasons: Unsweetened peanut butter can lead to separation in certain desserts. And the sweetness of the peanut butter fluff mostly comes from the sweetened peanut butter (since there's no additional sugar in the recipe).
