Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 100 grams Cheese puffs (keto-friendly, unflavored or lightly salted)
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1.5 tablespoons Powdered erythritol (or other keto-friendly sweetener)
- 0.5 teaspoons Sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
Instructions
Place the keto-friendly cheese puffs in a large mixing bowl and set aside.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter gently.
Once the butter has melted, stir in the powdered erythritol, sea salt, and vanilla extract. Continue stirring until the erythritol fully dissolves, and the mixture becomes smooth.
Drizzle the butter mixture evenly over the cheese puffs in the mixing bowl.
Using a spatula or clean hands, gently toss the cheese puffs to coat them evenly with the sweet and salty butter mixture.
Spread the coated cheese puffs onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to allow everything to cool slightly and set.
Serve immediately for a crunchy treat or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
