Step-by-Step Instructions:
- Step 1: Prepare the Base - In a mixing bowl, combine the 2 cups of Catalina Crunch keto cereal with the melted salted butter. Mix until all the cereal is coated. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9x9 inch baking dish to create a solid base. Set it aside to cool.
- Step 2: Make the Cream Cheese Layer - In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with the 1/2 cup of Monkfruit sweetener until smooth and creamy. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Carefully fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until well combined. Spread this cream layer over the cooled cereal base.
- Step 3: Prepare the Jello Topping - In a medium bowl, dissolve the sugar-free strawberry jello in 1 cup of boiling water. Stir until fully dissolved, then let it cool for about 10 minutes. Once slightly cooled, fold in the chopped frozen strawberries. Pour this mixture over the cream cheese layer in the baking dish.
- Step 4: Chill and Serve - Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until the jello is set. Once ready, slice into squares and serve chilled. Enjoy your delicious Keto Jello Pretzel Salad!
Notes
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- Use coconut oil instead of butter for a dairy-free option.
- Feel free to experiment with different sugar-free jello flavors.
