💡Tips

1. Melt the Butter Slowly and Carefully

When you melt the butter, you want to do it gently. You can use the microwave or a small pot on the stove, but either way, take your time with it.

If you heat the butter too fast or too hot, it can start to brown or even burn, and that will change the taste of your whole snack.

Burnt butter has a bitter flavor that doesn’t go well with the sweet cinnamon and chocolate taste you are trying to create. If you are using the microwave, heat the butter in short bursts of about fifteen to twenty seconds, checking and stirring in between.

2. Mix the Coating Ingredients Really Well

After you melt the butter, you need to add the sweetener, cocoa powder, and cinnamon and mix everything together.

You want to stir and mix until everything is completely combined and smooth, with no lumps or clumps anywhere.

If you don’t mix it well enough, you might end up with some pork rinds that have too much sweetener on them and others that have too much cocoa, and the taste won’t be balanced.

FAQ

Can I make this recipe without cocoa powder?

Yes, you can definitely make this recipe without cocoa powder if you don’t like chocolate or if you just want a different flavor.

Without the cocoa powder, you will still have a sweet and buttery coating with cinnamon, which tastes really good on its own. It will be more like a cinnamon sugar flavor, similar to churros or cinnamon toast, but without the carbs.
