Keto Cream Cheese Fondue. This cream cheese fondue is the second fondue recipe on the site but honestly it is the easier, creamier of the two. Many people have trouble melting Gruyère or other traditional fondue cheeses so this keto cream cheese fondue is for you. Personally it is difficult to tell the difference and it’s what I am going to be making from now on. The ingredients are both piquant and what most people will have on hand or are easily obtainable. Though some of you will use keto cream cheese fondue to dip bread into, its primary purpose is to use it with sausages, vegetables, and yes, even pork rinds are terrific. It also makes a great nachos sauce using pork rinds and if topped with chicken or beef…a fabulous dinner.

- Please, only use Philadelphia brand Cream Cheese. I used some off brand crap from Whole Foods the third time I made this and it DID NOT work.
- Best if left to sit for 10-15 minutes and if you need to reheat it a bit then just do it slowly while stirring.
- If you have leftover it will stay the perfect consistency and will not "harden" in the fridge.
- I got my queso shredded cheese from Safeway.
- If you like, add more spices to your own taste.
