I'll admit – most of the recipes that I make with Fathead dough are savory – you can see the full collection (and video tutorial!) here:
But recently I've been wanting to make more sweet recipes. Given the amount of cheese in this dough, you might be surprised. But if you think about it, mozzarella and cream cheese are actually quite mild – so it really can work!
So I amended my recipe for Low Carb Chocolate Croissants and set about working on making cookies!
