Ingredients

  • 4 ounces cream cheese softened
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon stevia glycerite equals 2 tablespoons of sugar
Toppings:
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder unsweetened
  • 2 tablespoons shredded coconut unsweetened

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a medium bowl, using a hand whisk, whisk together the cream cheese, vanilla, and sweetener until smooth.
  2. Place the mixture in the freezer for 30 minutes to harden. You want the mixture hard enough that you can work with it like dough. If using a shallow bowl, you might be able to freeze the mixture for just 20 minutes.
  3. Scoop out a measuring tablespoon of mixture per bite. Roll the mixture in your hands to shape it into a ball.
  4. Place the toppings in shallow bowls. Roll the cheesecake balls in the toppings.
  5. You can now enjoy your keto treats! Alternatively, place them in an airtight container and refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow them to set.

Notes

  • In addition to cocoa powder and shredded coconut, other tasty toppings include almond flour and powdered peanut butter.
  • You can use your favorite powdered sweetener (a regular granulated sweetener might feel grainy). I haven't tried making these with a liquid sweetener other than stevia.
  • The leftovers keep well in the fridge, in an airtight container, for up to 5 days. Remove them from the fridge 15 minutes before serving. Much like chocolate, cheesecake is best enjoyed at room temperature.
