I love adding it on top of coffee, matcha lattes, and more. It’s super versatile, easy to make, and oh so delicious!

How to Make Cheese Foam
Step 1: In a small bowl, whisk together cream cheese and sweetener until completely smooth. (Note: I made a large batch, which is why there’s a lot in my bowl!)
Step 2: Mix in heavy cream, milk, vanilla (optional), and pinch of salt (optional) until thick and fluffy. Taste and add more sweetener if needed. If it’s too thick, add more milk. Pour cheese foam on top of your drink of choice and enjoy!
