You'll need the following items to make this no-bake keto cheesecake recipe successfully.
🥫 Storage
Cheesecake can be stored tightly covered with plastic wrap or in an airtight container for up to five days in the refrigerator.
You can also store in the freezer for up to 3 months.
📖 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.
