Ingredients

• 1 cup Almond flour
• 1.5 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
• 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
• 2 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded
• 0.5 cup Heavy cream
• 0.5 cup Diced tomatoes with green chiles
• 1 tablespoon Jalapeño, finely diced
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon Chives, chopped (optional garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 1.5 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese and 2 tablespoons of cream cheese. Microwave on high for 1 minute until melted, then stir the mixture until smooth.

Step 3

Add 1 cup of almond flour, 0.5 teaspoon of salt, and 0.5 teaspoon of paprika to the cheese mixture. Mix until a dough forms.

Step 4

Place the dough between two pieces of parchment paper and roll it out to about 1/8-inch thickness. Remove the top layer of parchment paper and transfer the bottom layer with the dough to the baking sheet.

Step 5

Using a pizza cutter or knife, cut the dough into small triangular chip shapes. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. Allow to cool and crisp up.

Step 6

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine 2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese and 0.5 cup of heavy cream, stirring until the cheese is melted and the mixture is smooth.

Step 7

Stir in 0.5 cup of diced tomatoes with green chiles, 1 tablespoon of finely diced jalapeño, and 0.5 teaspoon of garlic powder. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, ensuring all ingredients are well incorporated.

Step 8

Transfer the queso to a serving bowl and top with chopped chives, if desired.

Step 9

Serve the queso warm alongside the keto chips. Enjoy your deliciously creamy, low-carb snack!
