1½ tablespoons butter, 6 ounces dark mini chocolate chips, ¼ cup peanut butter
Once thoroughly melted and combined, remove from heat and let cool for one minute.
Pour chocolate peanut butter mixture over pork rinds and mix by hand to ensure all pieces are evenly coated.
Sprinkle half of monk fruit sweetener over Muddy Buddies and toss to coat.
Repeat with remaining powdered sweetener.
Refrigerate for 10 to 15 minutes, then enjoy!
Notes
Add chopped nuts to the chocolate mixture for a crunchy texture before pouring over pork rinds.
Use a combination of pork rinds and homemade puffed cheese to create Muddy Buddies with a texture similar to corn Chex or rice Chex cereal.
If you want more chocolate, drizzle melted chocolate over the coated muddy buddies before chilling.
Use sugar-free peanut butter chips instead of chocolate chips for a nuttier flavor profile.
