I made up these little bites when I was doing Low Carb diet. I needed something to cure my sweet tooth and these were perfect. They are made with mini fillo dough shells. You can buy in your local grocery store. The shells can typically be found in the frozen food section, usually by the pie crusts! They are really delicious!
Peanut Butter & Jelly Bites (Low Carb)
15 mini fillo dough shells, thawed
6 oz softened cream cheese
4 T creamy peanut butter
1 T sugar substitute (I use Swerve)
1/4 cup sugar free raspberry jelly
Directions: I a medium bowl, add in the cream cheese and sugar substitute and cream using a hand mixer. Add in the peanut butter and continue to mix with hand mixer. You are looking for a creamy smooth texture.
Scoop the mixture evenly into the fillo dough shells and top with a small scoop of jelly. Enjoy!
If you plan on eating later or the next day you can make the peanut butter mixture and put in the refrigerator until ready to use. These don’t store very well as after a few hours they may start to get soggy.
