Keto Cream Cheese Mints
Cream cheese mints are one of my guilty pleasures. Fortunately, you can make a keto friendly version! I like to pipe these onto a parchment lined sheet tray as you can make them faster, but you could always make them the traditional way with a mold using granulated erythritol to coat them.

Ingredients
The Ultimate Icing Sugar Replacement by Swerve
2-½ cup
Peppermint Extract
2 teaspoon
Cream Cheese
8 ounce
Recipe Steps
steps 2
20 min
Step 1
Combine Swerve icing sugar, peppermint extract and room temperature cream cheese in a stand mixer. Beat until light and fluffy.Step 2
Place cream cheese mixture in a large piping bag fitted with a large piping tip. A large piping tip will help the cream cheese come through easier. Pipe into rosettes or stars about the size of a quarter unto a parchment lined baking sheet. Alternatively, you could roll the cream cheese into a ball and then into granulated erythritol and press it into a mold like traditional cream cheese mints. For both methods, let the cream cheese mints dry at room temperature for 2 hours. Place the baking sheet into the fridge until mints are firm before carefully removing them from the parchment paper. They should not stick together if stored in a container at this point. You should be able to pipe 50 mints. Enjoy!

Cane out really good. I have to keep it in the freezer or it gets too soft. But it is summer here so it is hot. But love the taste and the texture.

Used granulated Erythritol instead of Swerve. 2 1/2 cups was way too much. Too sweet. Will use Monk fruit extract next time and only 1 1/2 cups. Any flavor of drops works. Used lemon. Good snack when you're controlling hunger and carbs.

Very good, but next time I make them I might try the granulated swerve...I miss the texture in the traditional version.
