📖 Variations

  • Instead of making this recipe in individual-sized jars, you can use a pie pan or small springform pan to make a large keto cheesecake.
  • Chopped almonds, macadamia nuts, or walnuts can be used for the crust instead of pecans.
  • Drizzle the top of the cheesecake with sugar-free chocolate or caramel syrup for additional flavor.
  • Serve with fresh berries and whipped cream for a fresh touch.
  • A tablespoon of fresh lemon juice or lemon zest would add a tangy flavor to this creamy dessert.
  • Use different flavored sugar-free syrups for different flavors.

💭 Tips

Expert Tip: Use full-fat cream cheese to make this keto cheesecake recipe for the creamiest cheesecake and lowest carbs.

  • Make sure everything but the cream is at room temperature for the best results.
  • Make sure the chocolate chips are sugar free. I used Lily's - which have 0 net carbs per serving.
  • Freeze the crust while making the cheesecake filling.
  • If you can't find Confectioner's (Powdered) Swerve then blend granulated sweetener in a blender and measure the same amount. 
  • Don't overbeat the filling -  it will become too soft and not dense and rich.
  • If you use 4 ounce jelly jars this only has 3 net carbs - it will make 6 smaller servings.
  • Chill for the full 4 hours or overnight. During this time the flavors blend and the texture gets creamier.

👩‍🍳 FAQs

Can I use monk fruit sweetener instead of Swerve?

Yes. In fact, you can use any sugar-free sweetener that you prefer.

Can I make this keto dessert recipe without a crust?

Sure, just skip the steps to make the crust and only make the filling.

Can I use a springform pan?

Yes, a small springform pan will work for this recipe.

Y'all, I first created this easy keto recipe about six years ago for a low carb blog I used to own. When two blogs got too much to handle I sold one and moved on.

But so many of y'all asked me to bring back my low carb recipes that I'm adding them here on Restless Chipotle. I hope you enjoy this no bake low carb cheesecake as much as I do!

It really helps to keep me on track.

This no bake keto cheesecake recipe is so rich that I usually only eat half at a time!
