How to Make Bananas And Cheesecake Dipping Sauce

  1. Combine 8 ounces of cream cheese (softened), 2 tablespoons of sugar substitute (such as erythritol or stevia), 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract (or coconut extract for a tropical twist), and 2 tablespoons of milk (or milk alternative) in a blender.
  2. Blend until completely smooth and creamy. Add more milk if needed to reach desired consistency.
  3. Pour the sauce into six small, airtight containers. Refrigerate until chilled (at least 30 minutes) or pack in a cooler with ice for on-the-go enjoyment.
  4. To serve, partially peel a banana and dip directly into the chilled sauce. Continue peeling and dipping as you enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
